Further ramblings of a self-made pauper

The writing process continues.

I am slowly getting to the point where I shall need to start overhauling stuff I've already written to make sure it all gels. The trouble is in some cases, I expect the character to go in one direction, and it ups stakes and wanders off in quite another. This means that I have to re-think some of the others, some of whom I had hoped were putatively finished.

Oh well, c'est la vie.

The sense of writing in isolation is quite strong this time; I missed probably the most important of the two team meetings we've had and I don't seem to have quite caught up, yet. This is annoying. I'm not sure why I feel off to one side; I'm no more isolated geographically than other writers, and considerably less so than one at least.

Oh well, ever onwards and upwards.

As usual, I shall concentrate on making sure my bits of plot line fit together, and work in the important linkages as and when they occur. Three first drafts down; seven to go. Then come the second drafts and additional bits.

Remind me why we do this?
