The bombs continue to fall!
Something I had wished to avoid is now a reality: I've hit a chapter that needs to be re-written from front to back. I was honestly thinking this final read through would be easier, but it's proving to be detrimental to my emotional health. The silver lining of this cloud, however, is that the chapter in question is crystal clear now. This chapter has always felt like it stopped the flow of the book (early on, I may add), and I always approached it from a more technical angle - searching for better adjectives, expanding on ideas, etc. But now, I see these few pages merely lack a focus; it's going too many directions. It is almost like a short story within a book. The anchor of the chapter is now apparent, and it should be simple to write.
My personal deadline seems less and less feasible. This is due to my socially inflated schedule of the past week. Luckily, my popularity only comes in waves, and this forthcoming week, presently, looks nearly vacant. All I have to do is keep it that way.
