No Chaser

This morning, we saw a small hawk (probably a Cooper's) building a nest high in a leafless tree two blocks from our house. It flew back forth between its nest and another tree across the street from which it was selecting and plucking branches for its nest. I love nesting season.

In other news, all my creative energy is currently directed at the fiction project, which means far less blogging than usual. I will probably not blog much for the next couple of months as I have a tentative May deadline for the project, but it is going extremely well. Taking a month or so to really carefully map it all out was the best thing I could have done. Now, when I'm writing, I'm focusing almost entirely on style and other small details rather than worrying about plot, character development, etc. since that is already all outlined for each chapter. There's built-in flexibility, but starting with a detailed and careful structure is, for me, the way to go.
