As I’m currently reworking Impatience, I’ve found a few small pockets of time to myself here and there. Mostly I’ve been using this to write away at Book 2 of the trilogy. I’ve made a decent start, perhaps a third of book 2 is down in draft and all things considered I’m happy with this progress. As I’m now getting into the depth of the book I’m having to re-familiarise myself with some of the intricacies of Balance, in particular the character details.
I haven’t touched Balance for over a year. I can now see so many grammatical errors and things I should simply redo, that I think this book is going to consume a lot of my time. What’s surprising with this is I actually enjoy the rework. When I have finished changing a scene I usually give it a complete read through which is quite satisfying.
I’m not changing the story just the way it reads. The dialogue, the sentence structure and the overall feel of the scene. By doing this I’m improving my ability to polish. I think that’s a highly valuable skill to have and will help me fine tune Impatience.
It’s all good
