the DMV countdown
Jul. 16th, 2002 01:24 amof course, you won't understand this unless you're one of my fan club from MC, and i don't think any of them read my LJ. but i wanted to do it.
this is how much work i've done on each of seven interconnected short stories within the past three days.
#1(3 pages): minor reworking of most of it.
#2 (17 pages): word-by-word revision.
#3 (18 pages): some major structural changes, shuffling and cutting of scenes, then a pass of word-by-word revision.
#4 (9 pages): progressed from less than two pages worth of fragments to a state of completed draft within the past 24 hours.
#5 (currently 6 pages): added several scenes and came to further understanding of what the hell is going on (this is perhaps the most surreal one).
#6 (currently 6 pages): progressed from one page worth of fragments to current state, and i mostly know the structure of this one by now.
#7 (currently 3 pages): almost complete, so i haven't worried about it yet.
i want the set completed, if not at least vaguely polished, by mysterium, which starts this friday.
