Oh, I get it

I realized this morning (thanks to my homeopathic remedy? I almost hate that it seems to work...or doesn't, and its just a placebo effect) that lately my writing is much heavier on the plot end rather than the character development end; I'm bending my characters to my will to make a twirly plot rather than just letting them do what they're doing in the context of each other. I suppose there's a balance there I need to find.

I'm going to try to get some work on "Invalid" done. Invalid is a story about a boy searching for a friend stolen away from him by cancer.

  1. I am so glad you are working on that story! I have loved the idea ever since you first told me about it.

    Plot isn't bad ;)
