A weird thing is happening. My life is becoming a better plot story than any book I’ve been able to create. The stakes in my life are huge, and before I can get one problem solved another major crises occurs. I’m trying to take notes on how this is happening so that I can apply what I am learning to my novel structure.

But I do have to admit that having this occur in real life is taking away the joy of the victory. I can’t celebrate any victory, because a new looming, bigger problem is hanging over my head.

Trust me, I’d rather read about it than live it! Any suggestions on how to get out of this real life plot problem?
