Treading Slowly Onward

For a few days, well - since this previous Monday, when I got my new book (see previous posts) - I have been reading its contents and absorbing them all into my creative thought-process. Most of what is included in this book is Fictional Writer's Theory, which I am loving by the way! I am looking at situations in my story in a new light, because of it and I am happy to report that the framework of what I have completed thus far is appropriate for building my story for readers!

Tonight I am planning on attending a writer's group called Golden Rejects Writer's Group at the Chesapeake campus of TCC. Sounds like an interesting group, to be called rejects. With an emphasis on 'golden', I'd personally think the group is proud of being considered rejects, but thats probably just to be funny~ I guess.


Anyway, aside from the book and the writer's group, I think that the characters in my story will be getting a slight overhaul, as well as the scenes I have written since now (excluding chapter 1, I cannot think of making that any more of an impact, or my readers might be overwhelmed by the images from its scenes. (Don't want to scare anyone off, haha!) Hopefully these changes will spark a positive and progressive train of thought that will help get my story into gear so I can continue at my original steady pace.
