A Little Alchemy…
Over the weekend I was powering away on WALL #4 and realized I needed to go back to The Heir of Night (The Wall Of Night Book #1) and check up on some early facts, just to make sure I was on the right track.
I was! (So: huzza!) 😀
But in doing my fact checking I also stumbled over something else the character-in-question (the one whose thread I’m working on) said “way back then.” And was blown away because it completely presages what is about to happen in WALL #4 now.
I have had these character arcs in my mind for a long time, including before and during the writing of Heir, but was still amazed at how something foreshadowed then, could be falling into place, writing and storytelling-wise, now.
I often feel the writing process is magical and mysterious, with more than a little alchemy in the mix, and this was definitely one of those moments.
It gave me a wee bit of added confidence, too, that I am on the right track with this particular arc—which makes for an all-around great start to the week.
On which note, dear reader, I hope your week is off to an excellent start, too. 🙂
great to hear, I hope you have ice in the fridge, so hot today, so different from Saturday evening at Shakespeare in the park bundled up in rugs.
It has been astonishingly hot! And agree re the plunges from high to low and back again!
