Man. Some days are harder than others. Chapter 8 is done.
I am a bundle of steroid induced emotions today, spawned by a several large and small things.
- A friend that is in trouble that I will help bail out of it in several ways.
- I heard Christian Kane's cover of "Fast Car" and was reminded of some really rough days in my past.
- I had to write a rough chapter, about the aftermath of a character death.
- Some work folks had some rough things happen to them, and I listened to it.
And then, I watched Dragon Age Redemption, a web series by Felicia Day, to cheer me up. It was a sad affair, with a mixed emotional ending. It was absolutely brilliant.
She had this great final quote, that I wanted to use as my quote for Chapter 9: The Long Road. I figured I shouldn't without asking. So, I complimented her series and the quote on Twitter. And she replied!
She said she liked it also. I asked if I could use it. And she said that I could. So, I have had my first conversation with Felicia Day. Now I am going to write like the wind. Maybe someday, she'll read my novel. One can hope.
Anyway, fanboy moment over. Here is Chapter 8 and I am off to Chapter 9.
