13/01/26 – currently nearly half way through the story, there has been a few times when I have made the decision to delete whole chapters as it wasn’t going in the direction I wanted but did not see this as a waste of time as the new chapters ended up being a lot better and made sense for the characters and story. I have been trying not to rush the character progression as I wanted a good pace and not have it feel rushed. Taking the time to introduce characters instead of rushing them into the plot. I have had a worry that the plot is becoming slow but will revisit this and check the pace of the plot and characters are lining up how I want it to go.
