Oh, damn

[desperance]

So I spent all weekend working on my new chapter, when I wasn't making chutney; and I wrote half a dozen pages of what was Deep and Grim and Meaningful, Compacted of Pure Thought and Insight.

And this morning it occurred to me that there was a whole nother way to cover the same territory and bring me to the same place, which would be - well, not exactly light and airy, but there would be action! and dialogue! and readers could pick stuff up on the hoof, which is a goodness, rather than having it dumped like a dead slab on their plate! (have I mixed that metaphor, or simply crossed my wires...?)

Whatever. I hate tearing up pages in mid-draft, but, yup. Go back and do it again. Sigh. I'm going for a walk.
