Chapter 11 begins, the end is in sight!

Well past the half way point, both in chapter count, and word count.

I decided yesterday to do an outline for the final 9 chapters. Basically, what it came down to was there was far too much pressure to finish at 80,000 words, while not sputtering to an early close, or creating a situation too complicated to be closed out properly. So I did some careful work over the past few day's, and outlined each chapter's content.

The effect is of course that the book may come off as more "predictable", but the end result should be very clean, and fun to read. After all, a 300 page book if nothing else, should be enjoyable. There are a few things planned, which I hope you will all find surprising and rewarding. Hell, the book is full of surprises.

Chapter 11 continues tomorrow, chapter 20 is in my sight!
