So, Duncan likes the revisions I did yesterday. Good. Today I'm going to really buckle down and try to sort out the Peter storyline. I'm having trouble with Peter as a character, to be honest. I started out with him kind of modelled on various mathematicians I know, but I lost that flavor pretty quickly in the first draft. He ended up kind of dull and stodgy. I need him to be resistant to certain activities for the plot to work out, but that doesn't mean he can't be fun and interesting, right? Really, I think I just need to get a better handle on him as a person. Yesterday I figured out a lot more about her ex, John, and it helped really pull together all the John sections. The trick is to figure out how to do decent characterization when 60% of your book is required to be sex scenes... :-)
