Book Three intruded today and it wasn't going to let me write chapter seven until I got out this huge scene. It was massively emotional and by the time I was done with it I was gutted. I mean, tears streaking down my face and having to go in search of my husband to talk me down, gutted. I love this couple so much and they simply can't be together and it is breaking them both down so much. I feel so bad for them and they aren't even real people. But if I didn't torture them it would not be the love story it is. That was close to 1500 words.

Meanwhile, I had a massive revelation about another character which led to so much back story that I'm not sure what to do with it all. It might lead to a prequel to the trilogy or it might just be flashbacks. I do not know. This thing has a freaking mind of its own. This wasn't an actual scene, just a series of ideas that cascaded that I had to get down. That was another 1000 words.

So I didn't get anything done on chapter seven yet. I may still write some tonight, but I have to ice my hands first. Chapter seven is now being quite insistent since the other stuff is now out of the way. At the very least I will get it done early in the afternoon tomorrow. I have nothing on the agenda but writing for this weekend.

All of this story is just whirling and swirling around in my brain and making me so happy and giving me feels and making me just so joyful to be lost in it all.
