megwritesI don't know who said "the first steps are the hardest", but somebody's about to get a slap. Because that is completely wrong. The first steps are often the easiest, because they involve enthusiasm and a complete ignorance of how tough things will be.

And on top of that I had to re-outline the last chapters because the outline I hammered out way back in March.
'cause outlines are like training bras. The more things develop, the less useful they become. But you need them, 'cause otherwise you're gonna be flappin' in the wind, and not in a wholesome dog-with-its-head-out-of-the-window kind of way, either.
And you know what? I still freaking love writing. It will probably be the death of me, but god help me I don't know that I can do anything else in life and love it this much.
