I\u2019ve created a whiteboard that will give me a list of the chapters at a glance, so I can track the main characters of this project. They move in different circles, at the same time, so I need a visual aid while juggling chapters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have all this on Scrivener, & can create a doc for this, but I want something physical to look at, so it\u2019s one less thing I have to log in for. I\u2019ve filled in 2 ch. titles already: the 1st<\/sup> & the last (not including epilogues).<\/p>\n\n\n\n The chapters will be named after the featured songs (only a few don\u2019t have one), but I\u2019ve given these working titles to avoid spoilers. The last chapter is \u201cThe Kindly Ones,\u201d from the Aeschylus play, as his Oresteid is a chief influence, & that\u2019s the last play. It\u2019s from \u201cHow to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying,\u201d & is a song that Robert Trebor himself sang when he starred in a production of it. This chapter introduces his Xena\/Herc character, Salmoneus, to the story, 25 years later. And both find themselves caught up between larger forces at play. There are much more serious moments than this in the script, but I hope not to stray to far from this model. I\u2019ll link to the video, here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first is \u201cI Believe in You,\u201d which is a song, but not the one I actually use. Instead, I\u2019ll use it when I create a drawing video for this chapter. I include it here because it\u2019s a good example of the energy I\u2019m going for in the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Like the musical\u2019s character, Finch, Sal has found himself a target of others. It\u2019s 4 years since he got in Livia\u2019s way, and now, unbeknownst to him, Eve is en route to his island. As it happens, she now has a lot in common with him: they\u2019re both a \u201cseeker of wisdom & truth\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
