fighting with your characters

So frustrating!

I think this is why I'm stuck on Guilty Roads.  I'm stuck on a Nick scene, where what Nick probably would and should do is not what I need Nick to do for the rest of my story to work, and I'm not sure how to get around that.  I need a way to justify Nick doing something that doesn't fit his character, or work out a Plan B for him doing anything else.

I think this is partly why I like writing medical dramas, because I get to be a goddess and decide the characters' fate, and they just have to react to what I throw at them.  There's only so many decisions they can make, and it's pretty easy to figure out the consequences of those decisions.  Suspense stories are a lot harder!  LOL

mare:
You can always threathen Nick with death or dismemberment of some kind lol maybe that will work?

RokofAges75:
Hehe, he knows I would do it!  Maybe I'll have to try.  At this point, I don't really care; I have too many stories and not enough time. :(  (As I sit here wasting precious writing time LOL.)  I'm thinking I'm not even gonna worry about it until I finish Curtain Call, since that's a big part of the reason I neglected GR the rest of the summer, and then I'll go back to it and figure it out.

mare:
Yeah, somtimes that's the best thing you can do although I want to make the girl in curtain call fall off the stage or something so this way you'll go back to GR lol Can I have a cameo and do that? Kidding...as long as you're writing something, that's all that matters.

LOL
