Weekly Update # 3 - Prewriting Character Motivations

What would Joan d'Arc, Ernest Hemingway, Marie Antoinette, John Dee, and Cleopatra think if they discovered they were trapped inside a Time Travel Café? That's what I had to work out.

Word count to date: 26,688 words

Weekly count: 2,976

A week of pre-writing really helped me to establish a voice for all of these characters and their unique conceptions of how they would interact with the café.

I’ve put the work in progress in the link below that takes you to my google doc.. There you can read the rough draft of the first chapter.


Thank you for reading this weekly update. I’m on a mission to publish my first novel and am documenting the process. Here is how you can be a part of the journey.
