Several things are nagging at me about my next scene (about 200 words in) but I have decided to keep going. Typically the feeling will build and then I'll have to rewrite the scene. But I think it's necessary. It's like the old adage "you can't edit a blank page." I can't seem to imagine the scene until I put crap down and that frees me up to reimagine it properly.
It probably shouldn't but it gives me hope that I will really like revision. Cause at that point the whole story is free to be reimagined.
[Update: apparently I already reached that point. I cut it out immediately upon return. What I wrote already just couldn't stay. It needs to be moved to the next book. As it turns the focus of the book to something that just won't be dealt with yet. Now how to get the scene right. Gah, I hate this part... dark, black void of a scene. meh]
