However, it must be done, and I have roughed out some new scenes that will have plot significance. The problem with working with an old draft like this is that it is an incomplete jigsaw puzzle with millions of colors and no clear picture yet, and I have to make the new pieces to fit and paint the pictures in as I do so.
I may discard some pieces; but I want to fit as much of it all in first in a rough before I do that.
