Short Update on le Manuscript
Because I’m obsessing about it in my diary so often, I may as well share some of that obsession here. What’s a little obsession between friends? (Update format adapted from Maggie’s blog.)
What’s going well:
- Writing new scenes. It’s a breeze at this point because I know the characters so well, I don’t have to think about what they’d say or do in any given situation.
- Um, that’s all.
Three Things I’m having trouble with:
- Word count. Perplexing, because I’ve never had trouble with lengthy books before.
- Once I write those new scenes, I have to insert them into the story in a way that a) makes sense and b) flows.
- Making time for writing. I could handle 1 & 2 if I had more time. It’ll happen. I just have to be patient for 24 more days.
