Mentioned earlier how my brain tackles the writing process. Looking at it creatively, then technically, etc.
I had a period earlier where everyone was out of the house and I was plucking away at things. Then Beth came back, a neighbor came over, the TV went on, and the silence I was working in was suddenly gone. I should mention our place isn't that big so I couldn't just relocate somewhere else.
I initially tried to simply block things out, but that didn't work. The thought train I'd been riding had bucked me off.
But...I did find that it was a good time to switch to the technical aspect. Without thinking too much about the story itself, I just ran through the lines looking for overused words, typos, and sentence structure. I still didn't get a whole lot done, but I was able to go through about five pages and correct a handful of things I'd overlooked.
