That Thing I Said I'd Do

There you go, guys! I'm working on a novel I called "Here There Be", so up there is me giving a short reading from the first draft. I've always really liked its concept, even though the plot seriously suffered from the fact that I wrote it super-fast. That's what happens, isn't it? That's what editing is for.

Hence the editing I'm doing. I put together my scene list, and that really helped me see that, even though this novel followed two different groups of people, I totally neglected one! Seren and Nahe, the girl she meets on the beach, more or less disappear until the very end of the story in favor of a much more intense setting, Greater Stag Island. It's a tense post-revolutionary society where Idris, a former priest, works as an executioner to surreptitiously give prisoners their last rites. I think I got so wound up in the intrigue that I drifted away from the girls and their adventure! (It's a shame, because the girls spend a lot more time around that big old red snake)

I know, I said that I'd upload as soon as I felt less groggy. Welp. Took me a while to feel less groggy! Yeah, I know, I am a giant baby.
