I’m tackling the Winds of Khalakovo once again. I had taken a break to pursue several other things that had been weighing my plate, but with those done, I’m back in the saddle.
It’s taken me several days to get back into the swing of things. I had lost touch with the characters, the plot, etc. It’s amazing how susceptible you can be to forgetting things about a story, particularly if you haven’t had time to really work through and discover the plot and the characters. But I’m getting there. Tonight was good. 1,700 words or so, and I have a vision for the next several thousand. I’m looking forward to things getting easier.
One of the things I’m having fun playing with is an autistic savant character. I don’t know much about him yet. But he does unexpected things, which is fun. And I want, in the end, for those things to make a certain sense, a scheme that isn’t readily visible when looking at any handful of his doings. Only the child knows. Well, the child and his keeper. But that’ll remain my secret…
