Grr.
You know when you're writing a fic, and your characters need to have a conversation that has to go somewhere specific because you need to put across a particular bit of information/get someone to say more than they should/make a point/similar? And then they keep derailing and talking about other things?
That's been my current fic for the past few weeks. And I want to pick up all my characters and yell at them to just get to the bloody point already, because I've re-written the scene so many times that I'm beginning to hate it and just cut it out altogether, which would be stupid since I've very carefully built up to it. *bangs head on desk*

Personally, my issue is that I'll begin a fic over a specific climactic scene that hops into my head, but then by the time I get to that part, I've undermined the original scene and have to rework the entire thing.

LOL! And now I'm wondering what on earth Tara could have done...

This! So much. Well not always, but this particular scene started out very differently, and a lot of rework was in order. Thankfully I've got it sorted now (more or less)!
