Details

Over the weekend I went to visit some family out of town. The drive took about 6 hours each way. My wife gets car sick when she is not driving, so she did most of it. This gave me lots of time to write and I was able to get a few pages done. I am still having trouble naming all my characters, but that is getting easier. The newest hurtle is getting enough detail. This was a challenge in the first few pages. I do not feel like I got the picture in my head onto the paper, but after 4-5 hours of writing in the car it seems to be getting easier. By the end of a three hour stretch (the kids had fallen asleep) it was going much more smoothly. At least that is how it seemed to me. We will see if it is getting better once someone reads the draft.
