Since I changed the opening of “Others That Mother,” I decided it’d be super fun to outline the entire story again to see if there are any differences I’d want to carry over into the next draft. That’s what drafts are for, right? To get the characters’ lives in order and figure out the best way to progress to the end while making sure things don’t get bogged down in the middle.
“OTM” isn’t really an action packed book. I never planned for it to be but I’m worried the pacing might make things seem boring. I think a complete outline rewrite before diving back into the story will help with that particular issue. Guess I’ll see once I’m done again. Onward!
