I'm just a couple of days behind, and the reason I am is that I can't figure out how to end this damned thing. I emended what was supposed to be the last chapter, and ended up with a shorter-than-average chapter that came to a CLANK and what could I possibly write after that -- in the same chapter, anyway -- that wouldn't just dilute it all to nothing? Presuming that the chapter is something in the first place.
So.
I think, aha! leave the chapter at its shorter than average length and start up a new chapter to really finish everything off. But what goes in that chapter?
So this is what I have in the chapter file, so far:
a suitable lover
chapter 16
what the fuck goes in this chapter?
I am so pissed. The momentum just somehow fizzled, and the climax is not a climax, revelations happen at the wrong time, guns on the mantelpiece don't fire, stuff happens without precedent . . .
whatever made me think I could write at all?
on another front, this is Day Four of Fourteen Days Of No Carbohydrates At All. This is not faddism, this is a stage in a regime to combat diabetes.
