skyringis 25 000 words. If I can do that, then I should be able to get the job done. If I can keep going at the same pace,
This will get me to the crisis point in my main thread, and a very difficult chapter in my secondary story. The flashback is probably fairly straightforward.
I'm toying with the idea of expanding the London story. Really, it began as just a few paragraphs, but it expanded into Al meeting Dee and i realised that I could supply a lot of the material without a lot of effort.
Maybe it's worth a fourth string of chapters, but probably not. I might write the material anyway, just for the numbers.
The story has changed quite a bit from the outline I gave to bookczuk six months ago. It's the same in general terms, but there have been some fundamental changes in direction. In fact I've only just worked out some fairly substantial passages.
I'll have to go back and rewrite to make it all hang together, but that's something for December.
And I'm going to turn off skype and IM for the next two days. No offence, but I can't afford the distractions.
Oh yeah. "As Time Goes By" came randomly up - sung by Jenna, so I put her into the story. There's also one or two things from Manly Books.
Raining outside. Funny, it started off clear and pleasant, and the forecast was "mostly dry". It mostly lasted until I could fetch in the washing, so that's a blessing, but I was planning a run this arvo and that hasn't happened. Won't now.
