Samhain Thanksgiving Moon
Working through the revisions in Missing, having fun, surprising myself. About a third of the way into the manuscript, though the later chapters have more work than what I’ve done so far. Ways of knitting themes and character development with the narrative come more easily at this stage.
Got a new piece of software today, Dramatica Pro. I’m hoping it will help me deepen my work while making it more exciting. I’ll let you know how it goes. It’s supposed to take a long time to learn.
Five more verses of Ovid. These verses had a textual problem that had me digging around in the Oxford Classical Text’s version. It’s supposed to be the best manuscript available now. The Metamorphoses presents certain problems since it’s oldest manuscript dates from the 9th century, seven to eight hundred years after it was written. The Aeneid, for example, has some fourth century manuscripts, still within the time of the Roman Empire.
And finished up the next to last poet of ModPo. I’ll finish tomorrow and start on my assessments on Friday. Yeah.
