Go with It

Miranda, The Tempest
By J.W. Waterhouse

What do you do when the novel you've been working on for a year suddenly decides it wants to go in a radically different direction?

Go with it, or wind up writing a crappy book.

A book takes on a life of its own during its creation. If you try to force it to conform to your original outline, it will fight you, and you'll lose.
