Novel Update

Today I write. What to write is the question I have to answer.

I suppose I can give an update on the novel’s progress. It is coming along. I have done a basic story outline, which outlines the major events that move the story forward in 25 chapters. I also have the internal and external conflict outlined in each chapter. The biggest hurdle I have had is fully fleshing out each character’s purpose and internal motivations for making their choices and from whose perspective the story should be told. I discovered limiting myself to one was hindering my progress.
