Only have a few minutes online before heading out again. I finished chapter 14 this morning. It was a little short (4600 words maybe?) however, I already know where I’m going to rewrite it longer in a couple of places. I’m immensely satisfied with the emotional arc of this character. The chapter changed slightly from when I first plotted it out, but in a really good way.
This afternoon or this evening I have to take some time and sit and plot out the next chapter. I can’t write it until I do. I have a one sentence description of the chapter (basically, take down the bad guy.) It’s part of that “something brilliant happens here” plotting that I do occasionally. I will think of something brilliant, I always do.
I just have to do it today.
Only three chapters left before the novel is finished. Six days before I return to Seattle. I can do this.
Wow! Only 3 chapters left to write. I AM impressed.
Thank you! I’ve just now plotted out the end of the next chapter, and have a good handle on the start of it — all I have to do now is to sit down and write it.
