Marion - I sometimes do the alphabet thing, too.

Here is one problem I've had, and a solution. I want to get it right the first time. I used to get stuck on a verse and not be able to continue until I got it right. The solution is to keep going and ignore the one you're stuck on. Write verses past it, or even try writing the same verse differently. This last can be tough, because you have to let go of what's already in your head. You can save the verse you're stuck on. Often if you look at it after it's had a chance to sit for a while, something will come to you.
