Back In Gear
Jun. 23rd, 2009 12:38 pmVacation was good.
We spent last Monday afternoon on Navy Pier. Took the architectural river tour, which was nice. Younger daughter is flirting with the idea of becoming an architect and she was keen on the tour.
Back to writing now after the layoff. Toying with a character and whether he's an amputee or quadraplegic. I made the mistake of tackling Duma Key during my time off and while I had read the first chapter way back when it first came out, I'm miffed at how much its main character's experience (even from that brief reading) influenced one of the plot points I'm addressing.
I'll have to see what the UWG thinks about it. I should complete a new chapter (or two) by next Monday's meeting and I may submit the first three chapters and the new material to see how they feel about the tweaks I've made.
