Loving and Nurturing my Story

I’m struggling to get back into writing. No, I’m writing poetry and short/flash fiction pretty well. I’m having trouble getting back into editing Gaia’s Hands.

Gaia’s Hands is my problem child, as I have said before. What do you do with a problem child?

My friend Les, who we memorialized last weekend, would say we love and nurture our problem children.

So, how do I love and nurture the story? I need to go back to the characters, because without them the story would not exist. I probably need to converse with them again, to get back into the game. 

The editing will be my project for NaNo, so I have time to get back into it. 

Time to nurture my problem child.
