about time.
Jun. 3rd, 2002 01:55 amI"m so going to be dead. But 1100 words since 11 is nothing to sneeze at, right? and on this damn longterm stalled story. But it's been brewing for ages, and finally started percolating lately. I just redid the begining for the third time, and uncut a former character so he's back in the line up, as he'll work much better in this version than I'd been thinking. but now off to bed. I'll send the story to you if you want to see it, but I'm not posting it just yet. too early yet. first line currently is "She wasn't expecting a knock on the door less than a week after she and Tom had set up housekeeping clear on the other side of the US." I also worked on Hardwired, my Hard SF story (this one is the urban/high fantasy Paying the Piper), which has the line I love, "She'd loved the contrast more than the man--the pale cream of her skin next to his"
