Oh, hello there.
First of all, I won NaNoWriMo, and I even won it two days ahead of schedule, so…Hooray for me!
And then I immediately reworked the plot of my long-term novel, edited the first three chapters of my dad’s novel, and began work on the newly-reworked novel. Because EVERYONE celebrates writing 50,000 words in a month by doing EVEN MORE writing, right? Guys? Right?
So now I’m about 12,000 words into this new novel and THIS SCENE IS TOTALLY KICKING MY BUTT. First everything went SUPER dramatic for no apparant reason so I deleted that section (1,500 words of it!) and tried to start again, but it still feels wrong for some reason and I don’t know why. I think it might be my MMC. I don’t really get why he’s being such a jerk all of a sudden. He’s supposed to be kind of nice. And I think he’s upset that I’m making him so mean.
This isn’t really even that important in the grand scheme of things. In fact, I have half a mind to take this plot line out entirely. I don’t even know why I’m so insistent on keeping it in. It’s kind of the reason I had to rework the plot in the first place. Well, in the second place…I’m on the third or forth reworking of the plot at this point.
I’m just hoping that making this less dramatic will help with the furtherance of the plot. Hear that, FMC? Stop being such a drama queen! >:[
