As long as I don't get stuck for another 2 days on a single scene, this pre beta polish should be done by today! 🎉

Everyone has writing pet peeves, things that yank them out of “the dream” while reading.
One of mine: “Next thing she knew…” or any variation thereof.
You’re a writer. Make the abrupt change in awareness palpable to the reader. Or, to quote my mom, “Use your words.”

Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters
What is your character's favorite place in their world? A place they find peace, or excitement, or joy?
Is it a type of place (forest, mall, etc) or somewhere specific?
Is it somewhere they go frequently?

My current race to the end of draft one includes laying down placeholder text to block out the next couple of scenes, and then filling them in.
Block, fill... Block, fill... Keep moving forward!
Maybe about 13k to go before we hit "The End".
