Slow Saturday

Spent most of the day in front of the computer, making changes in the first, roughly-one-third chunk of Mouse and Dragon. I combined the first two chapters into one, deleted a small scene, added details and grace notes throughout -- and of course it all went slower than I had planned. I'm about to move to the couch with the last twenty pages and go through them, which means that sometime by tomorrow mid-morning, I'll be all caught up to where I was a week ago, though with possibly less words on the meter.

Not that writing is linear, or anything.

Also, I think that I've almost figured out how to get through the next third of the story without stinting anyone. I'll have to spend some time on the couch with a pad and pen to make sure I haven't forgotten anything, but I'm pretty sure that what I have in mind will work out.

I may have forgotten to say that we finished watching Avatar on Thursday night. I see that the misstep that had bothered me earlier was not...exactly... a misstep, after all, and I forgive the writers. Though I enjoyed the series, and I'm glad to have seen it, I don't think that, for me, it's a keeper. Still -- thanks to [livejournal.com profile] robotech_master for the tip!

Daav sat, one knee folded on the seat, his arm on the back of the bench, chin nestled in the crook of his elbow. The perfect study, Aelliana thought, of a man who very much did not want to answer the question that had just been put to him.
