Moving Right Along

Okay, so I'm shaking off my Monday blues. Yesterday I finished Chapter One, did some minor revisions to make it look decent enough to share with a friend (who was kind enough to answer 3 questions I had- gently but constructively, which is what I need), and now I'm rolling again.

So far, as of right now (mid-afternoon), the scene-by-scenes for Chapter Two are thorough and complete. I learned a few things from writing Chapter One, and don't think I will need to add on 3 more scenes suddenly. It took much less time than the scene by scenes for Chapter One, and I've already written Scene 1, of 6 projected total for the Chapter. I'll check in again at the end of the night's writing to see how far I got.

I loved the feeling yesterday of having a completed Chapter, albeit a rough draft, printed and in my hands to read through. It was such a high, like slamming 3 cups of coffee in half an hour. I want that feeling again. Chapter Two is much less scary mentally than Chapter One was.

The master plan probably does need an update. I'm going to see how this week goes though before I line it all up and make some decisions.

And now- occupational therapy for my bigger little guy, laundry, dishes and homework time for my smaller big guy.
