Spent two hours yesterday reworking the beginning of a 6000 word story that's been in first draft form for a while.
It's another story with an alien protagonist, and most folks liked it, but it took them a few pages to be sure that they were in the head of an alien bug. I think the new start helps to focus the conflict and make it more clear that the POV character is in fact an insect (and not, say, an iguana).
In other writing news, I tweaked the 900 word Wordos Halloween story to more firmly ground it in the POV of a charater (it was more poetical omniscient before).
