merrily we stumble along...
Oct. 17th, 2010 08:42 am*blinks* Just figured one bit out, and the rest of the scene -- and follow-up -- fell into place. I LOVE those moments...
However, dear brain? If, when I first put that bit in, you had told me WHY it was there.... Oh never mind. It's a good bit, and now I know what to do with it.
ETA: oh god, this book sucks. It's so not what I wanted, it's nowhere near good enough, it will fall down on its nose and disappoint every reader... (grabs woe-voice and stuff it back into sack where it belongs)
ETA2: 2/3 done and I think I've fixed the stuff that was broken and maybe broken some stuff in the doing, but hey, that's what we have editors for, to point that stuff out and make us feel like idiots. And the manuscript has gone from 114,000 words to 101,000 words, so ooops?
