Yes, I watched TV instead of thinking about my book last night, but after kid got home and went to bed, I went up to the comfy chair in my bedroom and thought about the book. After about an hour, a big piece of the new scene fell into place that explained many things and was a good kickoff to the emotional explosion that happens in a couple scenes, but it still didn’t tie the four books together.

Then this morning, lying in bed waiting for the alarm to go off, a huge piece fell into place that does tie the four books together quite wonderfully. Gives everybody plenty of motivation to go after the bad guy, and is enough to cause the downfall of the bad guy. Cool!

Now, I need to take those two puzzle pieces and tie them to the next scene and figure out how that discussion leads to the blow-up.

And, honestly, I think that’s it. The rest of the book flows great, only minor fixes in the last half.

Thank goodness! I finally feel like I’m getting someplace, and the emotions flow much more truly for who the heroine is in the last half of the book. It’ll make her one person, instead of this split personality thing that she was when she whined so much at the beginning.
