Well, my life is hell. Between full time employment and a full time job as a father, I have had little to no time for anything enjoyable. Unless you count sneaking out of work early just so I can have a couple of hours a week to myself, my spare time is as precious as platinum.
So, this past Monday, I made a vow to myself. I vowed to finish my book come hell or high water. I laid it on the line to my significant other and told her that I am going to write and that she needs to understand that I can't be disturbed when I do. I think she understands...At least I'm praying that she does.
On that note, I have decided to do a major restructuring of the story. I spent long enough away from it and had someone who is gracious enough to help me proofread tell me that the first part of the story is very difficult to follow and is not really interesting. I have thought about it and I agree with him.
Major changes in the plot are planned. I have brainstormed and laid out the foundation for it. Of course there are questions that I have to answer before I can seriously mesh things together, but I think it's going to make for a better, more enjoyable story. Most of the characters will remain the same, but scenes and events will have to change.
With that being said, I'm almost starting over. I wouldn't say that I am completely shitcanning it because there are some parts in there that are good and will fit in with the rewrite.
Now, only if I could find time...
