This weeks Goal: 3,000/7,000 words written
Accomplishments: 1st Arc of Demon Wars is Drafted
Reading: Nothing
I figured “why not!” If it was going to twist my arm I might as well write something down. In the end if I don’t end up using these 3,000+ words so be it. At least there’s something of a guideline to follow.
The First Act went smoothly enough, though sometimes I really hate being a spectator to my own work. It took some nice turns with a seemingly insignificant event, kind of like in the First book, when ends up being important to the overall story. I’m not so sure if its really valid for this story though.
All in all I like the scene, and I will likely keep it as long as it’s willing to be built upon.
In this first Act: It’s final exam time for the Council’s Apprentices before they are ushered off into the full heat of the Demon Wars. It seemed simple enough, retrieve said artifact from inside dangerous testing ground, return alive. Easy! Until they open a demon’s den to the world.
I’m quite excited to see what the second act holds. Oh right, I have to write that.
