And the cusp of the climax has been reached!

Believe it or not, I may actually finish this book before the end of time :). I've entered the climax and so the number of scenes and what's necessary has become even more fluid than it was before. Today, I removed one scene (or rather there were two scenes in my outline that were better as a segue rather than an actual scene break) and brought Wardah back together with her love, though she remains unaware for all of another 2-3 pages :). It's looking plausible for me to be done with this novel's first draft by the end of this week, though difficult. That's the goal because (insane as I am) I would like to start a new novel for the Forward Motion March Madness challenge. If so, I'll probably chronicle that one here too.

Hmm, maybe I should chronicle an edit next. I seem to be accumulating a huge edit pile again :p.

You never know whether something like this will be useful until you try, or at least I don't. Maybe Kyrnie would be the best guinea pig, but Heart of the Crystal is next :).
