Thank you, Emily!

I think I need to chop up some of the lengthy sentences.  Some authors know intuitively where to break them up into fragments that mimic speech, but my mind keeps clawing back to grammar rules.
I noticed that intense scenes in other novels I read are often written in short punchy and clipped prose.  I do have a swirling cloud of words that mimic the storm, but I need to know how to comb through the tangles.
I was amazed that the music fit so well and seemed in sync with the written action.  It almost seems as if the score was written for this very scene.  That is beyond my control and too big for me to contemplate fully, so when these pairings (of word to music) happen, it feels like the Lord is reminding me that I am not alone in this creative process.
