The novel-writing process : The fall of Ratatoskr

To write a novel is more than the final product. The creation and revision of a novel-length work is a process, spanning months and years of word generation, revision, and polishing. However, there are few courses that can teach the methods needed to sustain plot, character development, and tension over thousands of words and hundreds of pages. Contained within is four months of this process, culminating in roughly 23,000 words of a longer narrative that will, after continued work, form a full narrative arc. I demonstrate this process of generation and revision in the text itself as well as present a synopsis which outlines the complete narrative of the presented work.Thesis (B.?.)Honors Colleg
