PlotWriMo – 01
My biggest problem with this was the overall story goal.
I felt that I knew what effects I wanted, but that was really it. I was in such a rut over thinking about this play in ONE WAY, that I had a hard time escaping it.
Hopefully I can use this momentum to create something more lasting.
