Sometimes it’s the little things that make a big impact.
While I was working on this chapter, I felt that something was missing. I really wanted Hallren and Victorious to have some sort of meaningful interaction, but I wasn’t sure what. Hallren doesn’t have a very solid father-figure in his life and I wanted to give Victorious a chance to step forward into that role for him. But their initial meeting was hard for me to nail down.
I kept running through different ideas as I kept working on pages until I finally hit the point of “If I’m gonna put this missing piece in, it’s gotta be now or never.” So I had to take a pause and really figure out what I wanted this scene to be and I eventually landed on this.
