Fellow Tetrapod alpha draft is done!
This was a funny one. After a few false starts, I successfully wrote the first draft by sitting down every day, writing what I was inspired to write, and stringing the resulting scenes into some kind of order. I anticipate lots of fun slapping the resulting mess into shape in the second revision. But that’s a mission for another day.
Anyway, time of writing: September 14 – November 20 2020.
Wordcount: ~34K
First line:
“On one Earth, eastern Africa dried, which was both a problem and an opportunity for the local apes.”
Last line:
“What it means to be human, though! That’s much more exotic.”
Next project: The Centuries Unlimited epsilon draft. Let’s hope it’s the last one.
