Getting Back on the Fast Track

Untouched word count: 18,600. I got my 1,000 words in after all!

I'm still not completely past this difficult scene, and I already know I will have to re-write it. At this point it's just a rough, rough, outline. But the end of the chapter is near, (I have long chapters) and I should be back on track soon enough. The writing seems to be better when the characters are interacting. See, for me, dialogue is the easier part of writing. I don't know why, exactly, but my novel is very character driven, so perhaps that is a factor.

  1. I do sooo much better with dialogue too! Absolutely despise trying to write everything else (though it does seem easier on rewrites).

  2. Dialogue is the best! It can show so much, and is fun to read.
