okay here’s the deal
that worked very well I think
I love the movie but the first half wasn’t enthralling enough to keep me from editing but it did give me some nice fresh insight into my issues with this book
I got to a point where I have a vague plan what to do about the last few snarls in the draft and then everything started to go fuzzy when I looked at the words in my printout and I was like “woah okay I have to sleep on this”
but it was getting to the point (roundabouts the argument with the green jello painting versus sad fish man priorities) where it was definitely enthralling so then I just watched the movie and it was exquisite
okay my draft is due tomorrow and I have a full shift but it’s a closing shift so I have until 11:30 in the morning to get the rest of the draft hashed out
crossing my fingers that I’ll actually be able to sleep and get up at an hour where I’ll be able to get some writing in before 11:30
I have to rewrite one of my characters so that he’s in denial for the first half of his appearances and then mad about it for the second instead of like weirdly jolly and accepting
wish me luck
