oh that is some bad computer luck, pep! but thank god you have another one coming. haha mercury in retrogradeYes, I had a spare laptop - the one the kids use for their school/college work. And today it died also. I cannot believe it I blame Mercury retrograde (in the absence of proper technical knowledge). I've managed to coax my old one back to life, so I'm just hanging on with fingers crossed till my new laptop arrives Mon/Tues.
Well, all the main plot points are fixed and each chapter has a rough plan. I think you need an outline of where you're going so you know you have a structure that works. But nothing is set in stone - if I have a better idea for a scene as I go along, I'll change it up. And the first run through is always a draft - you cannot spot all the problems and iron out all the wrinkles in one go, you need the perspective you can only have from getting to the end. In my limited experience.
Oh yes, that pesky sleep train is a bugger if you miss it! Which is why, if I have an idea after I've turned the light out, I grope around in the dark and scrawl 'blind' across the notepad. Which makes deciphering my own writing the next morning an entertaining task
oh so all this that you're doing is still just the draft? well that's reassuring. i dont think i could ever be so confident in what ive written to say that the first go is the final product, no matter how well ive planned it out.
