Suggestions for grain direction
I've been straight razor shaving for about 6 months now and I can get BBS on roughly 75% of my face. I am just having a couple places I am having a problem and I would like any advice you guys can give me.
Here is a diagram of some of my facial hair just for reference:

The hair at the edge of my neck grows straight and up. Because of this I have a hard time going ATG. The length of the blade and the shape of my neck make it hard to get in there where the neck sort of meets the jaw line. I could get it in there if I really tried but I would have my head tilted so far back to get my neck straight I couldn't see what I was really doing anymore.
Is there possibly a secret way to hold the blade I don't know about for really weird angles like this, or is there even some sort of alternative pass direction I could take? I find it frustrating that about the jaw I am BBS and below the jaw it's sort of hit and miss.
