Still sick. Worked on next chapter, with sidetracks to other chapters to fix things so they match, or to steal tidbits. I have lost all sense of scene, and find myself wandering around in the characters' conversations without a feel for what I'm working toward. This is not a big deal yet, though, because it's the type of thing I'm likely to nail down on a readthrough.
Anyway, forward progress. Nothing exciting, but more than satisfactory.
The reasons for this blog: 1. To provide basic author information for students, teachers, librarians, etc. (Please see sidebar) 2. I think out loud a lot as I work through writing projects, and I'm trying to dump most of those thoughts here rather than on my friends.
