Decent progress last week, in that I managed to get a pretty good handle on one of my subplots for Petra Rising.
And I find, now that I’m some weeks in, that my Dream Time has taken on a bit of a structure. When I first start jotting notes for a new novel, they’re usually pretty random—bits of characterization, concepts, questions. Now, I have a much better idea of what I need to focus on. Barring any derailments—which could of course still happen—I figure I need to work on two other subplots, and then I’ll be ready to start drafting.
Understand, when I say “work on,” I don’t mean “have it all plotted out.” All of these notes are basically just enough to get me started. I still have very little idea how this thing will end. So don’t worry, folks; I’m still a pantser, in case you were concerned. Hope I’ve set your mind at ease.
No updates for Write Club.
And I’m out.
