Another 1,000+ words on Chapter Two today, which got me to ms. page 40.
It's too late to say much of anything coherent or useful. Maybe tomorrow night. I'm saving up some choice barbs and jabs for them what have them coming, plus all sorts of sage wisdom on "horror" fiction and writing in general. That way, when I have a night when I'm not utterly wiped out, I won't be at a loss for material.
I learned, early on, that it's best to stop writing while you still have something to say. That way getting started again the next day is much, much easier.
Meanwhile, another question from the mailbag: "ScaryGal34" (no real name given, sorry) wants to know what my favorite H. P. Lovecraft stories are. In no particular order: "The Colour Out of Space," "The Shadow Over Innsmouth," "Pickman's Model," "The Call of Cthulhu," and "At the Mountains of Madness."
Until next time, same bat-time, yadda yadda yadda . . .
