STORYSPACE: Link Loss
Did a lot of work on the Paths project last night (closed the shop early because of the snow storm–even though the shop is the other side of the driveway!). Something still isn’t working right.
Snipping all the past connections among the stories helped me see the narrative as a whole, and since I’m familiar enough with the story by now (Cheesh–I should be!) I can see just from the title boxes and a bit of text (I have the entire story in Map View at 75%, with most children out of sight [as good children should be when adults are concentrating]) so there still are the visual connections that can rather easily be recognized as pattern. I’ve even renamed some of the new Writing Spaces from Narrative 1, 2, etc. to Taste, Touch, Scent. However…
Okay, so I screwed up somewhere and made a loop that can either a) drop a lot out of the story by its bypassing nature or b) act as a Mobius strip.
Personally, I kind of like the latter.
