Thanks for the input on my chapter 1 remix. I might use some lines from the experimental version, but I'm still going to start in the same place as I did originally.
Now to extract my newly removed character and spackle up the holes that leaves.

Now for my experiment with chapter 3. A section with a different POV since the character that knows the significance of something is not currently the POV character and would in no way tell the POV character. I think it might work better even though I like to stay primarily with the main character. That's like 7 POVs, main character, new dude, henchman, bad dude, that other guy, another dude, and a another woman, yep 7 distributed throughout. Probably 80-90% is in the main character's POV still.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
The dude playin' the dude disguised as another dude?

Clearly
I don't know why I didn't say Aimee, Martin, Rainier, Curtis, Asan'Gareth, Holly, and Avar. I feel oddly reluctant to use names.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Interested, but reluctant to commit.
Sigh. Way to reinforce the stereotype, dcp.

I, for one, would love to have you do the cover, Deena. You do beautiful artwork.

Because books.
God, me too. And you'll write something, yes?
Amy - Sep 18, 2009 3:47:26 pm PDT #2366 of 6709
Because books.
Also, that's 22 people I counted who are interested. Three of those want to help with editing or production rather than writing.
dcp, I didn't include you, but if you write something when we finally come to some sort of decision about what and when, please feel free to send it in.

Yes, most happily.
