Plot bunnies are evil. Mine are at least. I think the last small plot bunny that came to me was a 20k word story
What i try and do now is incorporate any plot bunny i get into whatever i'm working on. Not always easy, but it's a way to satisfy its hunger without destroying my fragile grip on reality.
What about spontaneous solutions? the Eureka moments? i LOVE those. I recall when i was writing Occupational Hazard i kept thinking. "okay.. Cam's on the ground now, what does he do in the middle of a warzone?" and one day while making my tea i just blurt out as i'm thinking it "he drops a brick wall on them." and voila!
Actually here's a more techy quesiton too, what do you do most of your writing on? 90% of my writing is on my tablet/laptop, but i'm finding myself wishing for something lighter i can whip out anywhere and write.
