Writer Joy
Jul. 21st, 2006 11:02 amI am just loving being in the middle of the writing process again. It's going slowly right now since I've gotten into that editing mode without having written even half of it down yet. (I'd be surprised if I get this done by September. Like, for real.) But it's fun actually thinking about flow and pacing and dialog again. Saying things like, "Damn, this scene is moving *way* too fast," or, "Okay, I've just crossed the line from angst to melodrama and that's NOT GOOD," or, "I am *so* having this character mock the canon plot holes."
Frankly, I've never done something this big. I mean, it has an actual plot. With 'sploded droids! And slugs! Wait, am I still doing slugs? Haven't decided yet. No, right. The slugs are staying. But I have to research things! (Oh right, slugs. Note to self - must research chemical compounds.) And I'm having fun doing it.
(And hopefully it will never be read by anyone who doesn't like D/R, because...yeah. Meep. Meep meep meep.)
