    Tomorrow's (Tue 9/8) SLB will feature all three Chairmen. Bwah-hahaha!

    (Hey, I didn't say it would be much of a sneak peek!)

    Cool. :) Now I need to quit screwing around and get writing!

    Update! It's from Gio's POV. Gotta love writing by the seat of your pants.

    Okay, last bit of a peek of the 9/8 SLB post. Here's the start of it.

    "Giovanni squeezed a few more drops of blood from the shallow cut across his palm. The miniature tempest swirling before him lapped up the dark fluid before it could hit the floor of his Matron's office. A half hour of feeding the spirit was taking its toll. Gio bit the inside of his lip again to stay conscious. He wouldn't fail his Matron."

    I've been fretting over Friday's (9/11) post because I'm not sure how to accomplish what needs to happen. I mean, I know what will happen. The challenge is making the "how" entertaining.

    Finally I think I'm on to something! Part 14 is from Ashlynn's POV. Time to channel my inner uber-psychic four year-old. :)

    Writing for a kid's point of view can be refreshingly liberating. Although I think if I wrote from Howl's point of view he'd only talk about food and sleeping and fighting.

    Yeah, it's not as hard as I thought it would be. Assuming I'm doing it right! I'm just trying to keep things simple and literal.

    In any case, here's a snippet from tomorrow's post. Working on the end of it now.

    "She'd tried to warn Mummy and Svetlana about the dark, twisty thing in the shadows. She'd felt it in the living room, kitchen, and Mummy's room. Mummy and Shane could probably protect themselves, but Ashlynn didn't think that Svetlana or Jacob could. But no one would listen. She'd gotten yelled at and sent to her room. At least there she'd been safe."

    LOL! It is so confusing to see a conversation that was first between me and Nancy now be between Elisabeth and Shutsumon. :D
