How I felt about my writing
Pleased.
I did some rewriting and some new writing today. I decided to change the perspective, person and tense of my prologue – it’s the kind of change that can be incredibly intimidating in case it doesn’t work and you’re left with two versions that aren’t right. But it did work, and that is incredibly satisfying. I’ve also written one of three ‘interludes’ which will pop up between Parts of the novel, in the same voice as the prologue. It’s hard getting to know a new narrator whose voice I’m using for such a small amount of words, and giving it a distinctive enough flavour to be worth interrupting the rest – but I really feel like what I’ve written earns its place.
Any challenges?
Other than the usual challenges of writing while parenting a toddler, not really. Yay!
