Otis has begun his long journey to becoming a man...well at least on paper he has. I am moving steadily towards having the first act completed by tomorrow. Working on my dissertation has taken my head away from the world of Otis and I somehow fell out of love with the idea for a little while.
I went searching for a lot of inspiration in my head and found nothing. Left with nothing else to do to avert my crisis in confidence in the idea I decided to watch clips from a related film The Wizard of Oz. This inspired me to think of the way in which I was going to write Otis.
So far the writing process has been extremely fun and rewarding. The best part about it has been seeing my idea unravel as the pages go on and all the characters/surroundings come alive.
The only issue I've had with it so far is trying not to be too wordy as the limit is 80-90 pages. It is definitely going to be hard to restrain myself from getting carried away.
If anyone wants to read the first 8 pages then please let me know and I will send you a copy or you could wait until the first 20 pages are done.
