lightpointYMICB Chapter 7 is up. Whew. It's about 6000 almost 7000 words long. WHY. *dead*
Actually I'm considering breaking it into 2 chunks now, to make the narrative 'feel' less clunky, but it kinda feels like it'd be a faux pas, because I already posted it. :P
I think there's a pacing issue. BUT:
I have a note about Rey's character arc: She's not going to move in with Luke in chapter 8. In fact, she's going to get her own bed, her own furniture, and get her place squared away. And work on that book collection.
...Not that she won't be over there a lot. And vice versa. But I think it's important for her to do that, to forge her own peace, and be happy in her own skin.
Future thoughts: Their apartments *are* across the hall from each other. It's an old building, and, hell, there's almost never anyone on their floor. People rent and buy entire sections of old buildings like this all the time. Not saying that they'll do that. BUT THEY MIGHT. We'll see where the narrative goes. Also, my inner symbolism nerd is smiling.
But she does need to heal up a bit...And in the meantime, let the alarm clock battles BEGIN!
