When Your Web Won’t Shoot.
I am a person with a deep belief, if there is a will, there is a way. When I write myself into a corner, do I just sit there with fingers on the keyboard, waiting on a great epiphany? No. I ask the question, what would spiderman do? I shoot a web to an adjacent wall, swing out over the proverbial pile of words blocking the way, and kick the crap out of some adjectives.
But I too, at times, run out of webbing.
I recently spent days writing on something just to realize it is not working. Did I bang my head on the desk? No, CAT scans are too expensive. Did I question my life choices? Yes, for about five minutes. Did I walk away and come back with a fresher mindset? Absolutely.
Sometimes, whether in life or writing, you just have to know when to say, well played Green Goblin, well played.
Lesson learned, move on.
