I love it when the writing moves.
Mar. 30th, 2006 08:03 pmChapter 74? Most of it is done. I'm incredulous.
Best part?
I wrote part of it three or four months ago at a really boring show. Two snippets. Well, they didn't have the feeling I was looking for, so I wrote the chapter without rereading them.
Amazingly enough, nearly every detail from those snippets made their way somehow into the chapter. It was pretty surprising. Apparently my mind thinks along the same paths. What a happy thing!
I can't wait to drop this off at the beta. Seriously. I've been looking forward to writing this chapter for a year and a half. I've wanted to write it since I first thought of it. It wasn't totally effortless to write, but it really didn't take long at all, it flowed nicely.
It needs polish, oh yes. It's only in the first draft state. But I really like it a lot. I'm really curious about how people will react to it. It's rather unusual.
