Once More into the Middle!

 
At nearly 30,000 words (out of a planned total of ~100,000), I figure I'm approaching the end of the first act of my current novel. (Which suddenly seems like a lot of words for a "first act".)
 
So now I'm on the brink of pushing into that most horrifying and daunting of places in novel writing: The Middle.
 
It's a scary place, let me tell you. Even if you have an outline for a map. And I have an outline for a map.
 
I know where I'm going, and I know what route I'm going to take to get there. But there are a lot of words that must be written between here and there. And with two significant changes to the outline already, the accuracy of my map is somewhat in question.
 
But I will press forward. There is no way out but through.
 
Onward! :-)
