On a Highway: what's changing?

This is the last post about On a Highway until On a Highway, I swear!

I just wanted to fill you guys in on what this rewrite is for, what's going to be changing, etc.

So, first of all, the tenses. There was already a 'fore-chapter', so I decided to expand that and use a prologue/epilogue framing device around this fic, which has helped me sort out the pacing a little and have a think about timelines, etc. The prologue, I've kept in the present tense, the body of the story will be a more traditional past-tense narrative, and the epilogue will be present tense again.

Secondly, I think this fic had a strong start and then started to wane. Therefore, there are less changes to the earlier chapters. There are a few, and some things have been neatened up, but the later chapters are where the real changes happen.

So I'm about 5000 words into this rewrite. I've noticed that the chapters for this fic are somewhat longer than my usual, but I don't think that's a problem particularly. I don't plan to start posting until I have finished rewriting and am up to new chapters, but I have been supported in the idea to post On a Highway and House of Cards simultaneously.

So that's it! Insecurity drove this fic into the ground originally, so if you like it, please don't be shy!
