DDTT: Day two nanowrimo
Thursday, November 02, 2006Today, the words were slightly harder in the end, because I sort of wrote myself into a corner. I almost took my scene ripper out and demolished it, but instead, kept drudging along. So far the story has surprised me…this part is a bit longer than I thought it would be, but I think, or hope, at lest, that we will finally have the key scene then get the heck out of the Well scene tomorrow. I try not to hope too hard, though. The important thing is to let the book write itself. You just type, keep typing, and let the words come. The story knows what is needed, usually, and sometimes you will have to cut things, but you’ll be surprised at the things that happen that you needed to happen. I like Daniel. I changed his name from Ardis because I thought…ugh, too many weird names. We’re still on Earth, after all, in what used to be the United States. He’s growing from a throwaway (the only way he got in is because I see scenes as pictures sometimes, and so I often describe the picture…I didn’t plan on him becoming anything more than that.) to someone I genuinely want to use more. I wonder if we’ll leave him in the well or not… I’d write more, but CSI is on soon. :) Permalink Cindy scribed this at 8:58 PM 0 comments |
