Nothing written on new story today, I was trying to be a good girl and do the things I was supposed to be doing. But I worked on it a bunch yesterday and have over 4k words done, and stopped because I wasn’t quite sure where the next scene was going to start. But have that figured out, and hopefully will get more written tomorrow. It’s so nice to work on something new.

I have been working on the old stuff, too. While I watched TV this evening I organized a bunch of notes for the book, and typed a bunch of stuff into files, in hopes of putting the project into some semblance of order. It’s interesting to discover how much the characters changed from how I envisioned them at the beginning of the book, which is good; they are much fuller people now, but it means I have to go back and re-write a whole bunch of character sheets, because they’re flat out wrong.

And why am I going to the effort of re-writing character sheets when I’m on the polish draft of a book? Because it’s the first book of a four book series, and there is no way I’ll remember the details I need when these folks pop up in the other books. So, I’ll do the grunt-work now, and save myself a ton of headaches later on.
