Grrrrr

So this story I'm writing. (or, well, abandoning and unabandoning?) It's gonna take notes and research, I think, rather than just falling out of my damn brain as I write it scene by scene as it had been trying to. Because 14 pages in, and i have congruency problems.

I knew this mofo was gonna need notes, and I remember giving in and doing notes and sketches for the time spazziness, and now that i've loaded the story onto this computer, all my paper notes have left.

So i have to start over, and figure out how i had explained certain shit into earth logic. Either way, if i manage not to abandon it again, i may have a something finished by wiscon. If i knew how long it was gonna take to spin out the story i could figure out how much to develop the characters.


HQ says i should stop working on the time story and write the cannibal story he came up with the themes for, but I'm soooo close to figuring out what's really happening with this character, and her family.

You are going to restart after 14 pages?

Couldn't you do the notes and charts and prayers to the deities of writing, then go back and fix what you have?

no, hell no, i'm not rewriting entirely from here, and it's just that there's 14 pages that need some revising with organized notes before i can get back to the rest of the story.
