I finished writing chapter 12, and just like the last chapter, it took me five days. That is it took me five days, if you consider writing away at 2:30 in the morning of the sixth day, to still be in the fifth day.
Unlike the last chapter, everything that was supposed to happen in this chapter did. Well, almost. A little dialog planned for chapter 12 has gotten pushed back to chapter 13.
I was also lying in bed last night and came up with a different way to do a particular plot point. I had originally envisioned something happening a certain way, and now I’ve decided to change that. Looking back on it, I think the original idea was kind of stupid– even though I was basing it on real events. I think I would have been ‘jumping the shark’ for Patience and Mike, and I don’t want to do that, because lately I’ve been coming up with some other story ideas for them.
Anyway, three to four more chapters to go, depending on how they play out. I’ll keep you updated.
