The next chapter of 'A Dying Spark' unfortunately won't go up today.
There are a few reasons for this, one being my broken laptop (but that's not the main reason).
The thing about this chapter is I wasn't sure what it should be. It's not writer's block because I generally know what's going to happen, but I've spent most of my time thinking about the second act of the book. I know what'll happen in the first act, but I'd never really considered what order to put everything in.
That was my main struggle in writing this chapter and by Friday I'd already rewritten it three times. My laptop breaking was just the icing on top. So instead of forcing myself to write it out again straight away, I decided to take a step back and write down my outline. Not going into major details but just a play by play of what's going to happen and what that'll lead to. It's really helped me smoothen out plot holes that would've come up later and made it hard to write, but it isn't finished yet.
On top of that, I have exams that I need to revise for this week, so chances are the outline will be mostly complete by Friday and the chapter by Sunday.
Thank you for being patient with me.
Peace
