Well, that didn't work. I got insomnia

mmph. Change of plans. No guest goldens

I suppose I should be happy about that, but now my brain weasels are trying different tacts

aw. no puppers?

No puppers

And i lost the catnik

AFK

Oh, my timing is perfect.

hi rahne

Hey! How goes?

not too bad

I almost finished my stupid final chapter!

Excellent! About how many words in the whole thing? You have a target?

a little over 32K

endings are HARD

Nice. And YES, they are.

and this poor chapter has been stuck in limbo for a few weeks without foreward motion

It doesn't help that my main character is not All Better, y'know?

Is the main character on the way to All Better?

Well, Main Character has decided that maybe things can be better, so he's going to give it a go

That might be enough? Especially if there's a direction of possibility/hope.

Yeah. I think I am treating it more like an act break - setting up another story now that he's decided to Do The Thing.

Not a terrible approach. Sequels are, you know, a THING.

Ack. Here

Sorry, took a thirty minute stop for the worst time

well, it's either a sequel, or make my readers waaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiitttttttttt

and up until this major crash, I'd been really good at getting a chapter up every week or every other at most.

Endings are hard nod Me I have trouble with connecting the middle properly

So, finish this. Try to get next story built up most of the way before I get impatient and publish again. 😛

You can do this!

Maybe pursue some other ideas I had that aren't related to this specific arc.

I do not pretend this is GOOD writing, but I do have about a half dozen "regulars"

No worries, Mr. D! I also just looked away at the worst moment. 🙂

With a visit from the God Niece done I did something either quite economical or incredibly stupid.

That's really cool, Catnik. Certainly a lot more writing than I've done in a LONG time.

Do tell, Mr. D.

Trimmed my hair. I was looking like a Feral Ben Franklin

Good news? Not likely I'll be out and about for a week so that gives it time to settle

I THOUGHT of flat out shaving it as I was going bald anyway but my skin is iffy

It has not been this short in years.

Did you do it yourself?

I'm just picturing a feral founding father, spouting slightly unhinged aphorisms.

Yup.

wait, which one is ramona?

I got a nice trimmer as a gift, three inch guard and there you go.

Oh snot I got the wrong one didn't I?

There we go 🙂

There IS a boggan named Ramona in RV though
