Countdown: 18 to go (and a bonus scene created)

I finished my scene. To give myself a cushion, I need to write the next one tonight. I was able to expand the scene and it is much better now, makes more sense and is over a 1000 words. And bonusy good news: it has spun off a bonus scene. Yay.

And onward with the scene. Time to dive into the NS bonus scene.

UPDATE: and to be upfront about it: Above was just an expansion of a scene. Only 372 new words. Freaking awesome, moving-forward-the-plot words. but only 372. not many at all. No reason I can't write another scene, it's not like the muse can claim she's tired. LOL.

UPDATE: and I wanted to say it before, so I'll say it now to just get it off my chest and move on. This story is the exploration of my theory that stories with plot get published. Stories that actually do things rather than sit there choked with backstory and characters talking at each other about the 1 sentence of plot that's happened in the past 20 pages are the ones that sell. At least those are the ones that I like to read. So I'll see if my theory is correct. I'm going to polish it the best I can too, of course. I can't wait to find out whether I'm right.
