I put in a small, concerted effort this evening of about 380 words. Bit of a drop-off from last night’s 1,000 word slog, but I take consolation that I go something down.
I’m not quite sure where this story is going yet or what kind of story it should be. Centers around a pizza delivery guy’s last night on the job. Trying to blend the mundane with a bunch of weird shit. Taking Vonnegut’s advice and subjecting the protagonist to as much as possible. Based a lot of this on my own experiences delivering ‘za, but I’m attempting to make situations more hyperbolic. When I’m writing as this character I keep seeing a detective, but instead of driving around looking for the next lead, this guy’s looking for the next easy delivery.
Be well, and huzzah!
