Go Granddad, Go. Dave Quoting Paul Stenquist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > After having written several hundred magazine articles and countless > advertisements, I finished the first draft of my first novel today: > 70,700 words. It will probably grow a bit as I revise it, since my > early revisions have found me adding more detail and transitions. But > i'm very pleased with the plot structure. It's the first person, > present tense narrative of a schizophrenic advertising writer who > gradually grows more insane. The narrative is divided between the > reality based character and his deluded counterpart. Every time the > narrative switches to the alternate personality, the chapter ends and > a new one begins. The working title is _Both of Us_. I think the > ending qualifies as a shocker. I sketched out a plot for it many > years ago and wrote a couple thousand words at one time. This summer > I decided that I had to write it. I'm not getting any younger. I > started in July and finished the first draft today. Feels good. > Revisions kick off Monday. I've revised as I wrote, so it's pretty > tight for a first draft. Hope to have it ready for submission in > about eight weeks. This explains in part while I've done nothing more > than photograph my granddaughter this summer. > Paul > > -- > PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List > [email protected] > http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net > Equine Photography in York Region -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
