Made 2k+ words on the backstory. I'm using a bastardized snowflake, and like... nobody every tells you how many times you are going to write your story before you actually get to start putting words to manuscript. I'm enjoying it though! This idea came from a multi-year daydream, so I've already seen the major events once. But the way things work in "infinite redo's imagination land" and the way they need to work for a cohesive narrative is really different. So I'm carving out the "boring" parts I didn't daydream from the darkness and sometimes that takes saying "yeah actually I didn't enjoy that at all, redo". At the end of the day, it's still a daydream - and it's my daydream, so I'm not going to get bored no matter how many times as I have to rewind and make different choices.
