Slipshod

Well, look at that. Normal service did resume. Who’d have thunked it, eh?

In the last few weeks, a number of things have slipped into place. I’ve seen and committed new scenes, including an awesome new finale which made me jump and down with glee it’s so perfect for my characters, and I’ve been better able to visualise the links of the chain that moves this story along. (Trust me, this is a big deal for me. It’s historically my weakness.) And although everything felt kind of piecemeal, a little slipshod, sloppy and untidy, even with re-writes and serious chopping of extraneous sections I’ve managed to push the word count up past 80k. I shit you not. 80k. 80k of Charlie and Will and their stunted, fucked up situation. Yay!

I’m still pissed that I can’t think of a suitable title yet but wtf, we can’t have everything.
