gah. all i have to say is thank god i'm not actually writing a novel. this little thing is so easy by comparison.... *slogs some more*
actually i was at that point about 60% the way through and had a breakthrough. it wasn't magic or anything, i just needed to spend time (on vacation) immersed in it so i could actually become obsessed enough to figure out how to approach one of the big scenes, sit down and write it so all the little "i never thought of that ah-ha's! popped out. now i have enough to work with the next few chapters are pretty easy (by coparison). i am dreading the end though! when all the pieces have to come together perfectly and then i have to go back through the whole damn thing and fix all the foreshadowing and character development so that the end makes sense... grrrrrrr
