Writing continues on File 03..

Chapter 11 has now been written! I did get a bit stuck writing this chapter, certain scenes weren't quite working. One of my theories about writing is that it's good to focus on contrast rather than conflict. Only focusing on conflict can make characters come off as always argumentative, unlikable, and aggressive. Contrast can bring out conflict, but sometimes all you need in a scene is, for example, two characters who approach things in different ways solving a problem together.

Once I went through with some revisions, I think I was able to clarify the contrasts and the scenes started to work better, and before I knew it, the chapter was written! Going to start plotting out the mystery this week so that I have more of an outline to work with than usual.

Until next time!
