  1. I tend to write sprawling stories with lots of character POVs. Since that doesn't make for a short book, to say nothing of the focus, I prune the character POV to a reasonable number and put the other scenes in a side novella. I'm about to do that for the fourth time; this will be the FIRST time I have a novella size stack of side scenes that are critical to understanding the events in the main novel, but won't fit within the novel itself. (Trust me. I've been trying. They don't work.)

    It's both wonderful and daunting to have so many side character scenes that HAVE to be included somehow. I love writing a complicated story with lots of intersecting parts. But it's, well, complicated, and I keep running into: I have to write this scene, it's important, but I don't WANNA, it feels BORING. Which, of course, just means I need to figure out how to make it un-boring.
