I'm writing a novel. All my progress can be found on my private blog. The commentary for each day's work can be found below.
I just posted my State of the Novel for November. It tells how I got where I am, and where I'm going. That's interesting to me, if not to anyone else.
But now I have to move back from the grand themes and plot arcs down to the short term again. It's always a tough transition for me to make. I like the big moments, and I sometimes forget that the big moments are entirely composed of smaller moments.
I finished today's section feeling like a lot of it was filler. The Devan part was okay, but I wasn't happy with the Merona POV. It didn't really advance the plot all that much. In fact, if you find this scene as written in the finished version, I would be very much surprised.
Regardless, I'm done with Chapter 15, and chapter 16 begins tomorrow!
