Didn’t get a lot accomplished today on my revisions although it was more than I have been doing of late. I did add some flavour to the countryside… sweet smell of the air after the rain… sprinted through the wet grass… high-pitched whine of a motorbike faded off into the distance… low rumble of a diesel lorry… wood fired steam engine… the smell of freshly cut hay and farm animals.
I rearranged some of the character descriptions. Hope I didn’t create any info dumps doing that. At least I still have my previous version so I can go back to it if need be and only add the countryside “flavour” to it.
My newest podcast is up and available at http://www.melanierobertson-king.com/podcastgen1.3/ Please drop by and have a listen. I think you’ll enjoy it.
If you wish to comment, please do at this entry. I’m looking for feedback on my podcasts and utilizing my blog is the best way I know.
A bit of a lie in – 6:30, or thereabouts. But it was a long and somewhat sleepless night. Thunderstorm rolled through in the wee hours (maybe around 1:00) then another a couple of hours later – this time just rain. WE have a metal ridge cap on our kitchen roof (just outside the bedroom window) so it makes for a lot of noise.
Must get some coffee down my neck and see if the jolt of caffeine will wake me up.
