Whoa, where did that come from?

Had a very productive day yesterday where lots of things evolved and I got to develop a new character, one I hadn’t been expecting but excites me nonetheless. She solves a lot of issues I’ve been running into, and she’s very satisfying to write. She isn’t the protagonist, but she’s tied to him. If I’m not careful, the protagonist will take over the entire story line.

I think I’ll encourage that. -laugh-

P.S. As a reminder to the unpubs working on their WIPs, this didn’t just happen. I’ve been wrestling with this story line for over a week, the core of the idea for over a year, and I fully expect to run into more issues about 100 pages down the way. It takes time for the eureka moments to gestate, and if you don’t put the pull-out-my-hair time in, you won’t get the ah-ha!  So have fun with it!
