After a lot of thought, I have deleted chapter four of Appetite.
I am unhappy with both that chapter as well as what I have written of chapter five so far. I feel that I can, and should, do better. I’m bummed about this setback, as I feel like I have wasted my time (and also have felt that my writing is getting worse rather than better, but that might just good ol’ imposter syndrome), but it has really helped me look over the plot and see where the fat can be trimmed.
