Day 18: No work today, so I did a ton of writing. 1885 new words of actual story, plus ~1380 words of character notes for myself. I also worked on my outline by rearranging a couple scenes, and used K.M Weiland's advice to label each one with a goal, conflict, and outcome. I found this hugely helpful for fixing scenes that were boring/aimless.
My second draft is still very messy, (and more like a first draft in many places,) but that's ok! I want to get to the end of the story, then go back to look at everything as a whole when it's done.
Do you have any advice about finding writing partners? I feel like I'm slowly but surely approaching the point where my novel would benefit from a second set of eyes, but I don't know how one goes about finding these eyes.
