Okay so I've moved on from the villain's story. It didn't last 15,000 words. I've gone back to my first characters - Kieran and Rue, who are on their way to help my main character who has found himself in a bit of trouble. I've also tied this part of the story back into the short story prequel to The Clockwork Universe - Ex Cineribus Resurge.
The antagonist did do something quite shocking in this latest 2,500 words and he's now on his way to where my other characters are.
Only 25,000 words of my story to go! And as always, since tomorrow is Friday, I plan to try and write 5,000 words (though I do have to go pick up some things from Walmart before we go down to the States tomorrow)
I'm going down to Portland, Oregon this weekend, and besides going to Powell's books to have a look around (and also to the coast for a few hours and walking my dog in the local parks), I'm going to be writing! i'm hoping a change of scenery will give me some more inspiration for my story!
