Chapter 3 of If I Disappear is done/drafted! It's clocked in a little under 400 words longer than the previous chapter, which itself was already around 9k, and it's definitely looking like that'll be the norm. So far I'm actually liking how it's going; whilst everything is longer than I expected it to be, the scenes feel like they're mostly working and some of the perspective I was fearing I'd lose is showing itself much more easily than I expected too. Connie has a lot to say when she wants to say it. Along those lines, here's a bit for WIP Wednesday:
I'm moving into chapter 4 tomorrow and that includes some 'mission' scenes. So I imagine it'll be slower going. But I want to get stuck in for the last few days of the month, as I'm hoping to move into proper preparation for Nano come October.
I have the basic plot outline for my project. I have my setting, though I'll be doing a lot of sporadic research for details. I have my protagonists, side characters and abstract antagonist. It's now just a matter of making a proper outline and fleshing out some of my character notes, which is proving interesting with one of my protagonists because they're simultaneously a blank slate and a persona.
So that's the plan for October: prioritising this final bit of preparation ahead of November. I'll no doubt work on If I Disappear at some point too, but the focus will be on Nano.
