I wrestled my way through the last 17 pages of the all-important final draft of NIGHT SHADOWS. Now I get to work on the continuity round. This is where I look for discrepancies, even minor ones. Although the biggest trap is always touted as mistakenly changing names, hair or eye colors of minor characters, mine are usually more of the timeline variety. Making sure I give enough time for a character to leave a house, go to 2 different locations and then get delayed, all while other characters are converging on the same timeline from 2 different directions, and for very different reasons. Plot twists can be potential minefields for misinformation, and can pull a reader right out of a story. I've been there and done that myself. And then I've had trouble re-bonding with the book, the characters and even more importantly, the author.
