Chapter 7 Done

I declare chapter 7 done.

I took it to critique group tonight, and they offered minor comments. I brought it home, and futzed with the new part at the ending some, and I now declare it good enough. I also moved a chuck that they said didn't fit up to chapter 3, where it fits better, so that feels like a minor accomplishment since it helped shorten this chapter up a tad.

The original chapters 1-4, clocking in at 23.5k words, have turned into chapters 1-7 and now clocked in at 30.5k words. It should prove interesting to see what the rest of the book does to me.

Complete (30.5k of 113k)
