Two Woodcocks in One Net
Feb. 8th, 2011 07:47 amKiller-Kate and Luke Lackland: 910 words. Hoping to finish first scene of new chapter - not a pleasant one. Fiery Younger Sister traps villains, fails even to notice there's more than one sort of trap going on here. Somewhere, a wildfire is laughing.
This is apt to be weaker, at least in first draft, than I'd hoped for, because I did my, "Where's my notes for that real killer scene climax - come on, the ones I remember scribbling down as they occurred - oh, wait, that was just before I absolutely positively did all that ironing that's slithering rugosely out at me from the basket, wasn't it?" trick, again. And now I've forgotten what it was that I wrote in water, and can't get enough of it back to pack its proper punch. So for now, it's looking like I'll have to make do with something ersatz.
Bother!
