Squee, MORE THAN A GUILTY PLEASURE! Can you feel it?
You know what? Today, you can run ahead. If you think you can finish this sucker today… do it. Nothing quite like the high of finishing ahead of deadline.
Now, all of you are writing M-F romance this week, so remember, your ruling principle:
(And second, and third, and fourth, and fifth. 🙂
Ah, multiple orgasms. Make sure your hero knows that’s a thing.)
Feeling stuck?
Why?
I don’t want to say that Act 3 is formulaic… but if you’ve done the Dark Moment properly… it is all downhill from here. Really.
No, I’m not saying revisit the Dark Moment. Not yet. Imagine that you’ve crafted the Dark Moment perfectly. Never mind your flawed execution.
(Of course it’s flawed. We’re sprinting through a shitty first draft. EVERYTHING sucks.)
If you’ve done your Dark Moment… Act 3 unfolds more or less like this:
You’re at beat 6 or 7 right now. Yeah?
Thought so.
Go.
Remember, your Homework for Week 7:
And baby, if you stay with me–you’re gonna have a complete shitty first draft done by next Wednesday. That’s the deal, right?
So. Go.
