Well I have been writing whilst at the same time not writing. The character that I am currently working on has to face his own mortality. That's easy enough, except it isn't. It's turning out to be very difficult. His impressions of his own mortality are extremely different to mine and I have great difficulty expressing that on paper when it looks so papery thin to me as an author. If I was standing next to my character, I would ask him some severely pertinent questions.
I am not standing next to him. Instead I am hovering above him directing his internal monologue. It is a monologue that must stand up the blows and I must make sure of that.
Suggestions?
