Mostly Back to Work

Yeah, gotta go back to work tomorrow. Sigh.

Worked on Xia tonight. I have an interesting chapter 1 in which I learned a lot about my heroine. For example her name is Alexandrine, and she ran away from home shortly after her brother disappeared. She lived on the streets for a while. Who knew? I didn't. Not until I started writing. This sort of thing is why plotter strategies would never work for me. I could plot until I'm blue in the face, but it wouldn't work. Not until I started writing, and that would be completely different anyway.

Off to bed.
