Entanglement

I've been working rather hard on the novel (in case anyone wondered where I was *g*) but the more I work on it, the further away the day when I can actually start writing again seems to get. It' s getting more and more complex - getting better, I think (I bloody hope!) but gosh golly; 32,000 words of notes that's all got to be sorted out and made coherent. I just discovered 2 new characters today, and a whole lot of new ghosts that'll have to be described en mass - they're not individuals as such, but it's all extra stuff I hadn't budgeted for, if you know what I mean.

::wibble::

I'm sure it'll come right in the end. ::she said with a plucky, Dunkirk smile::

Writing aside, life ticks on as per, nothing to see here, nothing to report. Could be better, could be worse. :o)

I know what you're talking about

I'm in the process of figuring out just how my story is gonna end, and even that's getting more and more complex, and I'm telling my muse "no, please, I just want it all to end and for everybody to be happy ever after". But, alas, no such thing. In order to give everybody proper closure and all I have to have more *plot*. Sigh.

But this is about you and I am pretty certain that it's all for the better in your case, especially if, when writing, (unlike me, usually) you can actually stick to your notes. It should all go that much quicker for having done all the planning. Less pitfalls to fall into, one should think.

You have my best wishes. And I'm very much looking forward to the result one day.
