• Actually got a little done today and the day isn't over yet. How'd that happen? #

I’ve spent a lot of time and effort researching things that *might* come into play in the book I’ve been working on. While the research is interesting, I know I’ve taken it to the point of stalling.

The scope of the project I’m doing is large and needs research, but where do you draw the line? Research too little or not at all and you’re ill prepared. Research too much and you’re not getting anything on the page. I don’t know where that line is myself, but it feels like stalling now. I can always do more research later, right?

So, I stopped stalling as of today and I’m writing. If you’re stuck in endless research like I am/was, think about what you’re doing. Do you really need it all or are you actually afraid to start writing so you’re stalling yourself where it’s safe?

Stop stalling and start writing!
