Reading Log

As i took my break i didn't do too much reading, but last night i read  couple of chapter of my Writer's Guide book. The chapter i felt most helpful is a chapter about how to make your settings more visual a special. I like the way the make your setting seem like pictures. So i decide that i will attempt to be more descriptive in my settings so that they grasp my readers a lot better and it seem more vivid.

For the past week i have been concentrating on how i want my story to end. I don't know why but that's been my main though lately. I really want it to end in a realistic way and not in a cheesy fairy tale way. I've written down a couple of ideas, but the rest are just thought that are floating in my head. In my Gab Character chapter i have revised it. In that particular chapter he is doing drugs at Sarah's house( Karen's Old Best friend). With this chapter i want to explain the type of relationship that He have with her, and how unhealthy it is.and how gab is leaning towards changing their connection so he can concentrate on gaining a close relationship with Mills. But he has doubt about if that will happen.

Blindness is a very slow moving story, but what's going on his so interesting. I love the way the author writes for some reason, his choice of words seem to have deeper meaning and they linger in my head. I would love to have that skill.
So far in the book the character are still held in the asylum, but their number has multiplied because the blindness has spread through out the city. Since their number have grown the old internees have developed skills to get by living there. They are attempting to work together realizing its all up to them on how they survive, besides a hand full who don't realized it yet. And now the internees who still possess their sight, but are believed to be exposed to the blindness are one by one going blind. Which is causing hysteria in their ward. As the go bind the make their way to the other ward with the blind. One character i believe the first to go blind for that ward was a man. When he could no longer see he, he did not cry out for help or panic. In the book he is referred to as the man with the eye patch and i like him because he just accepted his fate.

During my writing process i have finished my Karen piece FINALLY! It was just taking me a while to find a place to end it and a good place so that i can bring it back up in my story later on. When it comes to new pieces i haven't made another one. It's just taking me a while to think about how i want the chapter, but i do have some ideas. I was thinking about devoting a chapter to Lisa again, i might involve her finding out about Mills tattoo or either it can be James. Mills just might tell James that she got the tattoo and he might just give her some advice or let her in on his childhood more so James seems like a real and personal character. James and Lisa may have some conflict with how to deal with Mills choice.

I've written three pieces so far, but they are not completely done yet. I still have to finish two of the pieces and change some stuff around in one. I have continued the chapter with Karen visiting her grandmother and thought it would be good to show a talent you would never expect from Karen. The piece that's nearly done is the one where Mills my main character gets a tattoo with Gab to keep her company. With this chapter i wanted some conflict with the fact that Gab is dealing and using prescribed drugs. I'm still debating on how i want Lisa and James her guardians should find out about her new tattoo and how they will react. I also think that i should reveal Mills may react to following the rules she never had to follow before coming to live with them.
