This week’s post continues Chapter 18, with Scene 4 (1.18.4).
I’m sitting here shaking my head, wondering if I’m going to outrun my supply lines.
I won’t post work for readers until it is close to as good as I can make it, and the only improvements will come from considering Book 1 as a whole (rather than the scene by scene you have been reading); Life has made it well nigh impossible to stick to any schedule, and illness for the past two weeks helped nothing.
Some of these later scenes are long (not all), but I refuse to break them up – they are as the Muse intends.
I’m not panicking QUITE yet, but I’d rather make you wait (if necessary) than post things not up to snuff, so pray I get more done than usual the next two weeks, less paperwork from outside the pale, and a lot more courage.
It takes time to explore the things I set up, mine them for the REAL story – and I can’t skimp on that time. There are underground (to me) caves, and I’m spelunking.
That’s all I’ll say for now, but those of you who are praying types may pray, and the rest of you could cross your fingers, please.

I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you. Purely selfish motives. 😉

You are EXACTLY what I need, Naleta: people cheering me on to finish because THEY want to find out what happens.
Of course, I have to worry about disappointing those readers, too, you know. I’m working on it – and I’m just as committed to it as ever. Thanks for commenting.

As an avid reader of this story i freely say – i’d rather wait an extra week to read the real scene (i.e., scene done right) than get a draft “on time.”
That said i hope the next ccouple weeks give you a break from life rolls!

Thanks – it’s not even BIG stuff. All I want to do is write, and when I can’t, I’m miserable. That said, coughing takes a lot of energy.
I will keep writing – promise.
