15.02.2025 (2): Planned and Edited

I think I've found the courage to finally edit my white-whale WIPsubstantially. I've added a new draft chapter, along with some minor alterations to the rhythm of the thing. The additions are still extremely rough, however, and I'll have to go through them again tomorrow.

The planning is going better. I think I'm uncovering the throughline of Alice's worries and making it show in the text more obviously. I spent a lot of time today just recounting her thoughts and trying to follow them, and I think I have some things aligned.

I've also read a bit more Lydia Davis, her poem about mown lawns. Very fun: I will try her type of voice on the Alice WIP, and try it more faithfully.
