#yes good#i also love this thing#let me read your novel pls#cause it sounds wonderful

I will let you know when it gets to that point. I once read a post from Neil Gaiman where he said he liked to show people his stuff once it was in the second draft form, and I think that that’s probably the route I’ll go mostly because this first draft is kind of like a very, very, very long outline of things that happen in chronological order. Like I know there are scenes that won’t make it into the next draft, but are there because they help me understand the characters I’m writing about or help me understand how someone gets from point A to point B in case I have to cut that scene and reduce it down to like dialogue somewhere for whatever reason. I think that the first draft gets draggy in places because of this, but the draggy bits are important since it’s the first draft, but they’re only really important to the first draft. 

I’m kind of maybe mid way through the first third of the story because the story to me is in three parts. Now whether it’s going to be three books or one book split into three parts I don’t know, but I know how parts one and three end, how part two begins, and kind of a general gist of the rest. I might end up with two parts instead of three at this rate, but I feel like since I’ve not met all my characters and it kind of instinctively feels like it’ll take three parts to tell, that’s probably how it will go. I want to write the first draft to all three parts before embarking on a second draft only because I need to see the larger picture.

shortbreadholmes replied to your post:I wish I could have gotten more into Pottermore,...

I know EXACTLY what you mean. I got sorted into Ravenclaw even though I am definitely a Hufflepuff and while I enjoy the new-information aspects of Pottermore its like ‘im…..not…..ravenclaw’.

I once took the test with all the questions - there's some Tumblr who does this, and my results came back balanced in all the houses though Gryffindor did have the largest percentage.

I'm a bit like Hermione. I'm very intelligent and do value intelligence, but bravery is what marks not just my life but the lives of those who associate with me. I have to be brave and a bit rash to combat everything that I can't do because my brain is incapable of doing it. I went to the #1 public school in my state. The kids there reduced me down to an object. More than one person told me to my face that they would have dated me but they didn't want to deal with the negative reactions from the other children. So the braver children were my friends and the more intelligent children were my antagonists. I would much rather be in a Hogwarts house with Steve Rogers than a Hogwarts house with Sherlock Holmes.

I had a lot of leaning towards intelligence questions when I signed up for Pottermore. It's too bad they not only didn't consult me about what house I wanted, but also that they didn't have any questions that might take into account having a disability. I know I'm in Gryffindor because I know that to respond to my disabilities the way I have, I must be a Gryffindor.

also on the 'cosette wants to learn all the things front' cosette being like THE BEST listener in the world because she just wants to absorb all this information and marius and combeferre and joly and courf all start using her as an almost study help because they just TEACH her about stuff and talk to her about stuff and she helps them understand things better because she asks questions and is generally just the best.

yes !!! because she helps them understand their own studying because she asks them about it and makes them dig deeper and it helps them fill the smallest cracks in their studying because she asks super obscure questions !!!

I just have one thing to say to cosette's delivery service and that one thing is YES.

Cosette the tiny little witch !!! leaving home on her own for the very first time !!! wearing a traditional witch dress and toting her radio !!!!

okay and also Grantaire getting his daughter all dressed up for ballet class every week and walking her to the studio hand in hand and listening to her talk about dance class and how pretty Miss. Azelma their dance helper is.

[openly weeps]

OKAY OKAY but Dad!Taire reading I Love You Forever to his little girl, and he gets really emotional so the last page/verse is pinched and squeaky and his little toddler daughter just reaches up and touches his face whenever he starts to cry.

THAT FUCKIN BOOK THO DON'T DO THIS TO ME

[weeps because Dad!Taire is my life] 

[official-enjolras]

okay no but Cosette not really having any female friends, and her and Eponine get along really well now but Cosette knows it's still tough for her to see Cosette with Marius so Cosette asks Bahorel to be her maid of honour. Needless to say he is very excited.

oh my goodness yes yes yes bahorel and he wears a flower crown Jehan makes for him and wears a nice pastel suit to match the bridesmaid's dresses

v cute
