So, I think I'm at the point of the plot where I should be around 35-40,000 words, just before the midpoint. As you can see, I'm only about halfway there. But I know I have a lot of scenes to write where the characters get development and do things other than go to meetings and talk about politics. I also have to add exposition and description, because these things don't come naturally to me.
I'm pretty sure I've mentioned that I'm not a visual person at all. I don't know what my characters look like, I can't describe their faces. So all of that stuff gets added in revisions. It's kind of a tedious way of doing things, but it works (for me, for now).
