It needs to be born in mind that the passage given above was written in Write or Die during Nano, both encourage wordiness. None of the action is irrelevant, just out of context. She's just spent a very strange evening with her boyfriend; Maisie (dog) got very wet when taken for a walk by the boyfriend (she got him out of the way in order to do something he'd disapprove of). All her actions show her character without me having to say that she's easy-going about housework.
I gather that Cinisajoy is male; not the target audience.
gmw: asking myself similar questions about the characters and the plot is how the entire story forms within such a short time. I suppose I take a more direct route to my destination. Jotting it down is no problem, neither is developing events to further the plot or details which help me to know the characters. The problem is having the energy to run the marathon which is novel writing.
I'm determined to finish this one.
My inner critic is horrid enough, I can do without other negative remarks at this stage especially considering the purpose of this thread. (Yes, I'm looking at you Cinisajoy.)
