NaNo Day 10: He had no sense of self left to pursue his own freedom.

He had no sense of self left to pursue his own freedom. 

 - Write This Down -

I got 2574 words done today. Yaaaaaayyyyy.....
So, nothing much to say.
Chapter 9 should be finishing soon ish maaaaaaybe. Depends on if I decide to have anything uber exciting happen. I suppose having everyone banding together is interesting in its own way, but nearly as interesting as Chapter 10 is going to be.

I realized today that I have lots of work to do come revision time. With how everything is developing and changing around, a lot of the earlier chapters need to be tweaked to accommodate. Details, details. A lot of details need to be made better known. Such as having Kah unaware of the stuff going on in Chapter 2 is grossly inaccurate of his character in Chapter 9. I also hope to flush out a better way of distinguishing him. His character seems flat to me. It's probably my imagination, but I don't know.
You know what I love about switching POVs? Seeing my characters through different eyes.

We see the Falgarith through four sets (so far) and Kah through two (his own and Keenah's). In that respect, I suppose anyone with a POV chapter at least sees themselves. But it's just... the contrast is so intriguing. Here in Chapter 2, Kah sees himself as a well off person, busy and sleepless, who goes about trying to balance his work with his desire to be back with his master again. But from Keenah, well, she sees this as a weakness because he denied himself his own freedoms.

That's just a little bit. I can't say too much as I'm tired and heading for bed. But I just think it's interesting. A lot of people actually suggest writing about your main character from other people's POVs as practice and stuff, and I now see the validity of such. Though maybe I'm tearing down Kah toooooo much. He is a strong person despite being flawed. I need to point that out too before I totally destroy him through Keenah's eyes xD

On another side note, I put up a little blurb on wattpad concerning a future fanfic called "The Cry of Shiganshina". Yah, a fanfic. Shocking, isn't it? I don't like writing fanfics, but this one came to me about a month ago, and it won't rest. So after NaNo and Write This Down are over, I'll be working on TCOS. :3
Also on my list are "Orpheus Rising" and "The Missile List". I have another book rolling around in my mind, but we shall see about that. I think TCOS, OR, and TML take precedence.

That's all for now. Night night, minions.


P.S.
Covers for The Cry of Shiganshina.... because I can...
