Writing Goals: Awoo AU!
May. 2nd, 2023 10:22 amWelp, my plans have gone completely askew from my original planned writing goals for the year!
But! I did finally finish the first draft of the Awoo AU. It's...an untidy mess, to be honest. I usually have heavy outlines before writing longfic, but this went off vibes and energy and I already can tell that certain scenes will need to be added, revised, deleted, and I'm even considering changing the main antagonist entirely??? HELP.
But! It's a first draft. The first draft is done. First draft is better than no draft, and first drafts are always the worst drafts because they haven't yet been revised or edited!
So...when I do revisions, I'm going to have to outline it. As in, re-outline it. Just write out my little scene card descriptions in Scrivener, rearrange them, add missing scenes. Decide what scenes to omit. That sort of thing.
It's pretty daunting, but I'm excited for it! Just...not excited to do right away. I think I've earned a break from this longfic project. :)
