...yikes, that title was painful to write.
So my lovely editor ShieldGenerator and I have been emailing back and forth about various aspects of OTSW.
Back and forth a lot.
A LOT. And each email is an even larger wall of text than the last. I think one of my longer emails clocked out at just over 1,000 words. Considering that is almost a quarter of my average chapter length thus far...yikes.
But these emails have not been for naught. No, they have taught me many things. One: this story is really damn confusing. Two: I overlook the simplest plot holes. Three: I've bitten off a lot more than I can chew.
GOOD THING I HAVE JAWS OF STEEL TO CLAMP DOWN ON THIS STORY AND RIP IT APART.
Anyway. It has come to my attention that my previous methods of organizing this story has really not worked out so well. So I ask the writers of those longer fanfics: how do you keep track of every little element, motif, and symbol in your story without losing the plot? Because apparently I suck at it.
