I'm taking a writing vacation today, 'cause I think all the different elements of this coming scene need to continue to stew together for a bit longer. Hopefully I'll be ready to get back to writing tomorrow, but I think a day of not having to deal with it will help me get back into the 'I'm doing it for love, NOT because I have to' mentality. It's getting to be too much like work lately.

569 words today, and my villian is officially a slimebag. He kidnapped a coworker's wife and daughter, and I couldn't get over my anger while I was writing the scene. One of the themes of this WIP is betrayal, but this scene just made me pissed. I think it's because the wife trusted him, and had every reason to. And he went and betrayed her. I think I was having one of those "No! Don't go into the cabin! You don't know what's in there!" reader kind of reactions. Whatever it, that scene just made me furious. Hopefully, it'll have that same effect on readers.

593 words, and (hopefully) a few thread-knots untangled. Things are seeming a bit more manageable, at least. We'll see how long that lasts.
