Day 55

1,060 words, most of which are scrap.

Actually, not scrap so much as me figuring out the story through my characters. Does anyone else do that? Sometimes I find myself writing dialogue that I realize is actually me figuring out where the story needs to go next. I realized almost at the end of my writing session that I was starting to explore concepts and themes better suited for a possible sequel. I'm not sure I ever will write a sequel, but apparently I know how it will begin. I rewound again to another iteration of the ending I'd scrapped for logistical reasons, but which fits better thematically. Now to figure out how to explain a twelve-year-old beating up a grown man, even if both of them are robots.
