Things are going well with my new structure. I can feel OW and SA taking on complexity and shape. Am thinking of giving TV a brother, Olivia used to love him, but the Incident with TV puts the kaibash on that and he marries someone else. That's just a notion right now. We'll see. Less is more, including fewer characters so we'll see. Haven't laid all the groundwork for the major events yet, but have begun to do so. As a side note, today, Lord Ruin was 17,938 in the Amazon rankings. There are now 4 reviews of it, very nice ones, too. Today, a friend told me it was a 10 ten pick at Waldenbooks, that it had sold out and they were ordering more. How is it I am so clueless about sales? Also today, I got three really nice emails from readers who said they loved Lord Ruin. They're still coming in at about 1-3 a week, and so far no one has hated it.
