I spent the last three days making notes as I read through the crappy first draft of a book. The first five chapters I thought maybe I'd written the novel in the midst of the muse angels. Chapter six changed all that. I've got a ton of work to do on this book. I'm super thankful for chapters 1-5 because they set the tone and nailed the characterization of my main characters.After chapter five I have a book of paper doll characters and cliche after cliche. And I'm pretty sure my heroine commits a TSTL sin. The first five chapters, she's super strong ala Buffy or Veronica Mars. After that....she's definitely looking for someone to come rescue her. So yeah, lots of work to do. The book is hot. Way hotter than I remember. lol.I'm taking tomorrow off to go to a writing meeting, but after that, it's full speed ahead.
