Now officially after the end of August. And Neon Blue isn’t done. Meh.
It is, however, very close. And after getting my main characters into Hell, I managed to get them out (mostly) during a tight little writing sesh yesterday morning.
I think I’ve said here before that the ideas I look back on and think “wow, that was a really bright, shiny, sparkly idea,” occur to me while I’m writing (instead of while I’m driving to work or while I’m cooking dinner or some other equally contemplative time). That was certainly the case yesterday morning. A couple of pieces of characterization really came together for me. As did the bridge between getting Jou and Tsara out of Hell and to the end of the story.
Now I just have to push on through to the end.
