HOWIE’S WRITING JOURNAL
Writing is for the birds!
(No offense, Dean.)
(I just remembered Dean isn’t real.)
(Writing is confusing.)
Anyway, there I was feeling all proud of myself for the way I kept Harold from revealing the true identity of B-Man (since it’s too early in the story). Then I showed Uncle Harold and Delilah what I just wrote, and did they say, “Great job!” or “Way to go, Writer Dog!”
No!
Uncle Harold said, “It doesn’t make sense that Harold and Chester wouldn’t know the true identity of Stinky Dog. Weren’t they watching out the window when Howie was transformed by the bolt of lightning?”
To which I said, “Well, maybe they got scared and jumped off the sofa and weren’t watching anymore.”
“Your readers don’t know that,” Uncle Harold said.
“They do now!” I told him.
Uncle Harold gave me one of his looks as if to say that including important details in my writing journal instead of in the story itself is cheating or something. I seriously think he needs to go lighten up.
And he should take Delilah with him when he does.
She was so angry she could hardly talk. Let’s see, I think what she said was, “Can’t write female characters.” “Making me sound like a ninny.” “Wouldn’t know a female superhero if one fell on you.” Stuff like that.
I probably shouldn’t have let her read the last chapter. She doesn’t know I have a plan for Delilah’s character.
I actually have a plan for the whole rest of the book.
I even know who B-Man is.
It’s cool having a plan.
It also involves a lot of thinking.
I may need to lie down for a little while.
