Q: Dad, you’ve done some pretty big remodeling projects around the house. What is the hardest part?
A: Getting started. Sometimes thinking about the enormity of it can cause your brain to shut down. But if you break it down into lots of little projects and attack them that way, it helps. It’s the same with writing a complicated story or any other big project. Make your best plan and get started.
