This is MJ Muñoz, Author, Artist, Analyzer.
Join me for my 10 minute writing session for March 4th, 2024.
I am writing on Grow Bug Tail Chapter 15.
This is Writing Session 7.
And this is what I wrote today.
What do you think, Gale Hoot?
The Critterbot Tiger jerked his head towards Hopper.
Gale Hoot swiveled her head in response.
Ah, I see.
Cinderstripe nodded.
So, Hopper, I hear you scared some nice folks around here.
What was that about?
I scared someone?
How?
When?
I've only met Widget and Gale Hoot.
Hopper looked between the two, then back to Cinderstripe and asked softly, did I scare
them?
Hopper wondered at the accusation.
And that's all I wrote.
So I did a decent amount of rewriting here.
And I didn't really.
Unfortunately, this is another one of those writing sessions where for about half of it,
I was being somewhat, well, a quarter of it I was being somewhat interrupted.
Another quarter of it I was being severely interrupted.
And the last half was done in less than ideal circumstances.
So I'm thankful for what I have and, yeah, I don't know what else.
I actually left out a word or two.
I left out one word and then I left too many words in another area.
So I actually had to go back through, I had to fill in those gaps or correct those mistakes
I should say as I was reading it back right now.
But that helped me catch the mistakes and fix them, which is good.
So I think, you know, I'm slowly building out Hopper's personality.
And that's good because in the previous chapters of A Grow Bug Tale, you don't really get to
see much of his personality.
He's very much lost and shocked and surprised at what's going on.
And you may say, hey, that sounds redundant because he's lost and shocked and doesn't
know much of what's going on in this story as well, which there's some truth to that
or this section of the story.
There's some truth to that, but I think I'm texturing his character in different ways
by showing how he went from being lost to being a member of the Critterbot Guardians,
basically.
And then what happens to, you know, he gets put in a position after that where that's
all taken away from him and you get to see how he reacts to all of that and how he faces
the future when he's going through another experience where he's kind of an unknown quantity
or everything is unknown to him rather.
He may be known, but everything's unknown to him.
And seeing how he deals with that is interesting.
And I want to have the kid who's partnered with him have a parallel journey, I think,
to that in the space of this book, which I think I have outlined somewhere, but I can't
quite remember.
Anyway, that's all.
Until next time, folks, take care.
