220.1: Wrote Revisions and Plan

  • Stepped back and planned a revision of my newly-minted chapter, and also an exploration of Alice's character and relationship with Marisa before the breakup! This unfortunately reminded me of my ex and I spent quite a bit of time looking up stuff about her. Boo, hiss.
  • Wrote my required words for the day, but I'm glad I worked myself into an emotional openness I need to appreciate most novels, so I read a lot while writing.
Also started reading Jessica Au's Cold Enough for Snow. She has such a wonderful sense of flow and personal anecdote, and I know how sinewy this is, how much work goes into making a section in a novel read so well, so no wonder she won an award. Definitely looking forward to reading more tomorrow (and probably finishing the novel). I think novellas should be more popular as an art form.
