Princess: Out --- Mystic Amazon: In

After several days of thought and debate (with my husband), it has become clear that Alexa is not a Princess, a Maiden, shy and/or self-absorbed.

Frankly, as I've written her -- particularly in the first part of the first novel -- Alexa is a boring ninny.

She gets better, at the right moments. But how she does that is not clear.

And, since Alexa is entrusted with a very important package, She Has Got to Change.


Actually, not so difficult. She just needs to take over the dynamic things that I assigned to other characters.

And become a, ta-daaa, a    Mystic/Amazon!

Of course, that changes details and dynamics.

But that's part of the Second Draft.

That's me, sitting in front of the computer, chewing my nails, double-checking my notes.
