Re: I'm procrastinating on my last 5000 words

Well, I have two sticking points. First, I only have the last scene left on my outline to write and I'm not happy with it, so I want to change it but I'm not sure how I want to re-work it. Second, my 44 scene outline turned out to be a little too short, so I've got to go back into the story and add some more scenes and some more depth to scenes I already have in order to get it up to the final 60,000 (which is the ultimate goal for the piece, 50,000 is just for NaNo). It won't just be padding because I know I have some plot holes and my characters need more depth to be emotionally realistic. I'm just procrastinating on it because with the super detailed outline, getting this far was easy...going back and adding all new material is going to be hard. I seem to be feeling rather lazy. :)
