We've all been there--you loved writing the beginning, but you stopped dead at about 40%, and now you've fiddled and fiddled with what you wrote until it's unrecognizable. You start over, but you can't get more than a paragraph out. It all sounds terrible! What happened to the fun part of drafting? Spencer Ellsworth, author of four novels and many pro-published short stories, is here to help you tame that inner critic and have FUN. We will discuss techniques to break blocks, silence the critic inside, and let your imagination run wild.
