Woke up this morning thinking about what to get done today:
1) Wrap up the second major pass at the outline. Focus on the introductory chapter first. Then look hard at the role that Alec's parents play and make sure everything fits and builds appropriately.
2) Spend some time on motivation. Create a document that details the major and minor motivations of each character.
3) Develop strong, clear and unique 'voices' for each character. Create a document that begins to outline the kind of 'voice' each character will speak in. Cite examples from popular media and get quotes (potential epigraphs!).
