So I started Dust 25 (again), version 3.now-moving-onto-the-action, and while I can't tell if it's working for me so far, I don't hate it yet, which is at least a step up from the other two versions. Which, let's be honest, are still labled as drafts for Dust 24 -- the Edmund chapter really came out of the blue, but I'm glad it did. They're labeled as "dust 24 a.k.a. a visit to the butcher" and "dust 24 a.k.a. jill in anvard," if anyone was wondering. Sometimes I get creative with my chapter labels (since I do write each chapter in a different document, then c&p it into the big "Dust in the Air" and "Dust in the Air part II" docs later so I know complete wordocount), but since I don't always know where I'm going with the chapter...not usually.
On the other hand, I've also got labels like "finally someone gets laid" and "cair paravel is a more savage place." And a deleted chapter called "the susan asskicking chanel." I've also got a way early one which is "death by exposition." I still can't believe I never thought to call Dust 21 "lucy in the earth with diamonds," though.
...I now must have a chapter that I can call "death by sexposition." I cannot however think what that content would entail.
Other gems include "boys and their toys", "fun times with criminal types", "escape from cair paravel", "fun with naiads," "hit the ground running," "oh god poor susan," "thieves, drugs, and money", and "gangs of cair paravel." A long-ago deleted chapter is called "cattle-rustling for fun and profit." Actually, a lot of these have the word "fun" in there somewhere.
I feel like I should do some kind of quiz to see if anyone can match labels with chapters.
Er, where was I? Structure. ( babbling about writing, spoilers for Dust Part II so far )
