I thought of another side project I want to do, and will probably work on a lot before the first checkpoint. I want to write a bunch of vignettes about track, all the good times, like our debate about abortion, that bad times, like when Amanda got hurt, and the weird times, like when Becca got suck in the mat. Then, I can print them all out on nice paper, find some photos to go with, sew up the binding, and give it to Butler at the end of the year. I think Sarah was going to write some too. That would be extra-special. This isn't my year-long because I don't think there is enough stuff to write, and I know I'll get tired of remembering stuff even more quickly than I'll run out of memories. It'll be a nice way to break up to noveling, though.
Things I did today:
- Devised idea for communal daybook
- started revising a polevaulting vignette I wrote over the summer
- anguished about checkpoints
I think I will revise my first two checkpoints to allow for more exploration before I settle on an idea. I do know for sure that I want to avoid writing the whole novel in straight prose. I'd get sooooooooooooooooooooooooo bored.
