My chapter outline (attached)
i have never done a detailed chapter breakdown
so all i have is this big-picture guide (which changes every year or so), and then the detailed chapter contents i do (and keep changing), as write up each chapter
i have posted a page of typical feedback from my principal supervisor -- sometimes he will email me 3 or 4 pages of typed notes ..othertimes ..if i am in sydney (where my uni is) we meet and he gives me hand written notes as marginalia on a print out of my chapter ..these seem legible when we talk thru them..but once i return to adelaide i realise i can't read his handwriting!
what do three-quarter chapters taste like?
Occasionally we share bits of our writing in process here -- without even necessarily wanting others to read it -- because just the simple act of publishing in a safe space i think can push the writing a long a little, give it a bit of electro-magnetic wave energy!
