Additions and other Notable Things

So yesterday I spent the day at Barnes and Noble, and read the entire thing of Into the Lion's Den from start to finish. I definitely need to add things from the time she went to the school. It was too quick, and even though in my head I knew what was going on, reading it as a reader, I couldn't even feel nervous or afraid. That tells me I still haven't done my job in telling the story. So I'm going to go back to the beginning of her time at the school, and start adding scenes and slowing things down there.

I went back and re-read a lot of the blurbs I wrote a few years ago, and found a few that I can actually see in this fic. So I want to see if I can sort of re-create those with my new writing style. And Those blurbs, by the way, still make me cringe when I read them. Not in the "OMG these are terrible" way. But in the, "OMG, where did that writing style go?" Or maybe it was the passion of the story. Not quite sure. Either way, I'm not satisfied with what I've done this far, So I'm going to fix it.

Spent all day sleeping. I don't know why. Well, I guess technically I do. I took my usual medications. But I wasn't expecting to be so tired. But since I hadn't slept well the night before, and then just couldn't' stay asleep last night despite the sleep aid, So I probably just really needed it.

Between Barnes and Noble and Staples, I've made a conclusion. Typing has taken over handwriting. I couldn't find a single notebook. They had legal pads and journals, but no plain notebooks. I talked to someone at Staples and they told me that they mainly stock the kind of notebook I was looking for in the school season now. I wonder in a few years if they will become totally obsolete. The point is, the handwritten language is dying. Kinda heart breaking, honestly, knowing that the majority of my notes for novels are handwritten. I don't do a lot of note taking online cause I prefer hard copies since I am paranoid about keeping notes anywhere on the computer. -sigh-
