Making it all fit together ^^;
I have all the BIG scenes played out, it's the small quiet scenes, the every day scenes in between, the growing pains of getting to know people scenes that are really difficult for me to know where to put them. It's easy for me to chart the flow of conflict, but a lot harder for me to plan little things like that, especially since my characters relationships have developed over the years, I now need to translate that in a way where someone can read/see it and understand lol
THEN I need to make sure I'm also not just hanging on useless stuff. For me, I notice tonnes of things about a place, its smell, temperature, vibe, and so I tend to overdo it on characters noticing things because it's something I'm weirdly hyperaware of. So the feedback from most people reading what I write is "you go on a bit too long about the feeling of a place"

Which is how my scenes end up getting so long. I gotta learn when to shut up, and when to let the characters actions talk for me~ The hardest lesson of them all, pray for me x'D
