This was such a timely reminder for me! I've been really struggling with a novel redraft for the past month - I've been telling myself that I've just been too busy to really commit to it at the moment, but in reality when I do have the time to work on it my brain shies away from the uncertain haze of where exactly I'm going with it. I do like to write fiction without a very solid plan, to try and let it take its own shape, but in this case I've probably sold myself a bit short and really need to try and clarify a direction for myself.
