Spent most of this evening editing to get the story more in line with the new plan. Chapter 23 will need a total rewrite, so I’ll get to that next time.

As part of that, an extra instalment of #DanGoesToTheMovies before the hectic adventure tomorrow.

Who can say if I’ve changed this year for the better? But because I lived it - and will continue to - I have been changed #ForGood.

I always thought it was spelled “fuckore”, but I know the term. WANA Nation represent.

Forgot my own hashtag 🤣

Just to be clear that this isn’t me giving up. I figured out my way through the mess I wrote myself into; it’s gonna take some heavy rewrites that I would usually save for editing, but I’m determined to beat this into a workable shape.

Gonna be a busy few days on my end, so I’m putting Novelmber on a brief hiatus until Monday and let the first week of December be the final week of it.

I guess we can call it… Draftcember? Decepilogue? I don’t coin hashtags 😂

Decided to hop ahead to the epilogue and HOO BOY, this is much easier to figure out. Just a quiet character moment with lots of contemplation - much more my wheelhouse.

Yep, I’ve gone and written myself into a corner. Again. Gonna take some time to really reevaluate this climax cos it just isn’t gonna work in this current state.

I’m thinking I should have tried to plan this climax out a little more 😅 A lot of logistics to consider for an ending, as it seems. Need something a bit more material than vibes.

The will isn’t there today, so I’m taking a night off for self-care. Back to work tomorrow.

As it turns out, writing out a final fight is actually quite difficult. It’s somehow much easier to get into a headspace for writing its aftermath.
