For those of us who work more or less off the cuff with only an image of where ouir story is going, we may find that we have created a seemingly impassable situation. Do you know that feeling?
What do we do about it?
Start again?
Sit and mope?
Keep going in the hope that all will come clear in the end?
Introduce a rogue element
eg. environmental saviours blockade the Hypermarket?
Does the cat eat your character’s dog/dinner/ mascara?
A nuclear winter descends and changes all the rules?

Keep notes – they may come in handy sometime.
