March
I hereby decree this the month of "I actually wrote this piece of dog excrement?" I'm going to go back to what I wrote in NaNo and edit it. My goals:
1) Figure out what the purpose of the scene was, and make it fulfill that purpose
2) Learn more about narrative structure so that I can try for a novel next time
3) Edit all scenes to sound less corny, horrible, etc. Some are already doomed for deletion, based on the sheer level of stupidity I managed with them.
4) Scenes I'm rather fond of, I'll post here or get someone to look at with minimal editing on my part. In those cases, I may be too fond of what I wrote to see it's flaws. For pieces of that nature, please please please comment if you like it or hate it or anything. I want to know the truth.
Anyway...won't necessarily be daily posting, but this is your advance warning.
