2.3 KiB
%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.
Theme A
- Introduction
- Development
- Recapitulation

- The importance of doing your own damn research
- The folly of doing your own damn research
- Rocking out vs just rocking (thinking "gosh, at least I don't have that" as I saw the guy in the car behind me rocking out thinking about TD)
- Are my hands moving? Is my head moving? (at bconnected)
- Saying no on an ongoing basis (tic at bconnected getting frustrating)
- Leaving for new pastures
- At some point I started composing while walking
- Development
