Double Oops

After the last, I went for a walk and kind of worked out where the final story in this sequence will go to finish of the arc (and set up the next sequence), and resolved to sketch it out for myself.

So there I was, staring at the blank sheet of paper in front of me, trying to pull story threads together. One of the characters was shifting in his seat with his hand in the air, trying to attract my attention. I ignored him as best I could until, finally, I snapped.

"Yes? What do you want?"
"Please sir, I need my own story."

I was about to curse and throw something at him, when I realised he was right. I'm 4500 words in and kinda liking it so far.

Oops!

Previously on Elegies...

I finished the draft of The Fourth Craw and readied myself to plunge into researching for something else, happy to leave the macabre behind for a while...

Four and a half thousand words later I typed END on the initial draft of Lighten Our Darkness, another vamp tale, that insisted that it be written. I think I'm going to have to finish of the sequence before I can concentrate on other stuff. The whole lot will require a proper revision once the last one is done, and I should be able to be objective about them by then.
