Mid-week Maunder 8 April 2020

April 8, 2020 By fictionman

There is a lot happening in the world today, but this blog was never designed as commentary on politics or pandemics.  Here, I will stick to writing and books.

Closing in on getting the audiobook of Starman’s Saga ready.  I had never thought much about audiobooks before it was so strongly recommended to me.  I read very fast and figured that an audiobook would slow me down and interfere with the way I imagined the characters sounding.  Listening to the draft narrations, though, I am changing my mind.  It is a whole different way of perceiving a story.  I do want to see how this works, but I am beginning to think of doing it again.

Taking a few days away from the stack of paper that constitutes the print of the first draft.  I find that makes the mistakes stand out more when I sit down to revise and it makes the places where a scene needs to be cut/added/re-written more obvious.
