Stuck: Day who knows-
Chapters: 4 (draft 2)
Total @ 16.7
Finished up the chapter 4 edit today, though I might actually be cheating as I cut the last two scenes and turned them into chapter 5. I moved everything else to chapter 6 and the story has grown to almost 17K. I've been taking everyone's advice to heart and have been writing character motivation pieces that cover the time frame of the story and some of it has been harder than others. But plugging away at it has helped. More scene charting, still sorting out the timeline, I think the entire story spans a month, but that needs to be made clear. Scene charting helps me to make sure I don't miss anything. Once I finish this draft I'm going to use Luthienebonyx's awesome chapter questions and go through it again. For the moment at least I think I might have regained control of this beast. Though perhaps it will wake once more and throw me of its back as it grows more words on its hide.
