For a novel, er, going on the several not exactly complete ones I've written, I seem to have to have a prolonged false start with it over several weeks or months, then leave it and come back up to a year later to do the full draft. No matter how much momentum I seem to have to begin with, that gap almost always intrudes.
V. frustrating.
Short stories are different for me, and can be written down at once. In fact, they should, or they get stale and much more difficult to work with.
