Ch 9 and this and that
Jan. 4th, 2008 08:31 amWell, I've gotten two pages written on chapter 9 now. One POV from Dao Quy and one from Hannibal. I was going to work on Face next, and then decided I want to finish all the DQ and Hannibal sections first, then slip Face's POVs in between. I don't usually work that way, but for some reason I want to get a handle on those two first, and then fit Face's stuff to juxtapose them.
One thing I'm discovering about Dao Quy is that I really like her character, and I'm finding myself wishing I was writing a story (ala Tess) about her and Face. I won't be able to have her too much in this story, because that would really be going off on a tangent, and add several really unnecessary chapters, but I might write one of their time together as sort of an addendum.
Speaking of Tess, I think I'm going to use that Character Test for her and the others. Maybe that will get me back on track there as well. Finding that site was really a godsend for this story, I know that.
Oh my. Having quite an email discussion with JFM about slash and characterization, and with Billy on writing as a whole - so enjoyable to be able to speak frankly, and really discuss things. Sometimes I think talking about writing is more interesting than actually writing - writing is WORK!
I'm thinking about going back on the list - just for commenting and discussions. No posting for a while yet. Not until Covenant is completed, at any rate. And not right away - still feeling a little too antagonized, so not a good time for it. But I do miss it.
