%title Sonata (working title)
:writing:novel:memoir:fiction:

Another stab at writing a novel in sonata form.

* Introduction
    * Theme A in the tonic: on music
    * Theme B in the dominant: on movement
* Development
    * Transition to development: the moment they started coinciding was when I started walking when composing/composing when walking
    * Theme A vs theme B building tension and modulating - add in magical realism bit by bit and it turns out the magical realism is just escaping depression
* Recapitulation
    * Theme A in the tonic: music dissolving into chaos with senior recital
    * Theme B in the tonic: movement dissolving into chaos only literally this time
* Coda
    * Remembering the faintness of heart that went with the decision not to walk and how similar that was with accepting losing one's body and maybe I do hear music in the everyday and getting away from it is as hopeless as getting away from movement.

I think the thing that helped me get through Qoheleth alright was starting to write (or at least outline) the two separately, and then work on interleaving them about oh I dunno maybe halfway through, so.

Also vi doesn't like working with me at list depths greater than three, so.
