John,
You do have a way of putting things in perspective.  Thanks!

Wait until you've been thinking about it for 23 hours and 50 minutes out of the 24 hour period, word.smith, and then you can worry about it.

Ms Vision,
Thanks for sharing that.  I think I'll try that and see what happens.

Tiel,
That does work.  Kind of letting it simmer on the back burner until inspiration hits.

Hope you are well, iin good spirirts and writing prolifically
For me it helps to visualise the actions and the body language in the scene and sometimes a rhythm just works its way in and the talk flows

Going to something else for awhile and letting your unconscious go to work on the problem sometimes works for me.  Something will come swimming up and I'll  be running to the computer to capture it fresh.

Fiona,
I guess we get to pat ourselves on the back several drafts later and not before.

Very true,
voicing/writing the problem often leads to a solution. I have problem in that the idea sounds so great in my head but I battle to get it onto paper. It only works out several drafts later.
