OB Remake, Ch. 2
Jun. 2nd, 2009 10:15 pm11:48 AM -- Next morning! :-P Yes, I slept in between... Found a few chunks that could actually stand as is with little tampering. *cheers* And... a few scenes that just needed to go completely. O_O Yikes.

12:34 PM -- *giggles at the time* *stretches* OK. Have gotten through the angst-fest in Chapter 2. :-P I toned it down some, but actually felt that was an appropriate spot for angst. I corrected my timeline manipulation to some extent, debated whether or not Galaxy should stand as an Appaloosa... as they didn't exist as a breed until the Nez Perce bred them in America in the latter half of the 2nd millennium... decided that this story takes place in an alternate world and I liked his description too much to change it. So... phthbbbbbt. ^_^ Must get ready to go to work now. *waves* Here's hoping to finish Ch. 2 when I get home!

10:06 PM -- OK... I think I'm done. I tentatively cut the last two scenes from this chapter, because I'm not certain they really should be there. I think the journey to Mt. Taikyouku needs some elaborating and I'm really not liking what I did with those scenes. They need a major overhaul and I think they're better off at the beginning of Chapter 3. *nodnod* We'll see what the beta-reader thinks. ^_^
