Unbalanced Vision

The loss of narrative momentum is the worst of worst situations encountered when writing. You want to go on, but you can't. You scribble notes, but your brain works faster than your hand, and thousands of ideas clash in your mind, until you can jot down no more ideas. All the vowels and consonants become meaningless. What keeps you sane is the basic human needs--eat, drink, and sleep. Because routine is momentum. Perhaps one moment, your narrative fits in the routine, and everything gets back on the right track again.
