Building, binding, bonding

The book keeps going. And things are slowly getting glued together. The glue-ing is a very long but fun process.

The wise characters - ie the ones loosely based on Jim, Phil and Lexi - are having their storylines plotted better and more exact so I'm getting a good indication of the exact scenes they appear in, and what should happen in each scene.

In addition, I'm doing a lot of colouring in... By this , I mean going to old scenes I've written and inserting bits in there that tweak it and help the flow of the story.

Out of interest, the book begins with a kiss. As for the ending, after a period of erm lets say intense drama, the final scene is just one of the everyday monologue bits :-)

Anyway, here's some of the random sentences from stuff i added tonight, now that blogspot lets me copy and paste finally lol.
