Writing:
As suspected, the things I wrote over the last three days sucked. Not that I went in the wrong plot direction, but they were stilistically terrible. I needed to rewrite it all. That's what I did last night, and got 300 words for my trouble.
Unfortunately, I went to bed with the feeling that the plot sucks, too. I thought I could space out the ending over three chapters, but now I feel like I don't have that much time or it'll get boring. But I don't want to cut all the sex. ;)
Dilemma. I'll see if I can trouble my beta for plot advice.
ETA: did some fiddling with the character arcs and am now no longer quite so pessimistic about my ability to pull off some kind of prolonged plot line that isn't boring. So far I only did some editing, but I'll try and sit down to write more tonight.
And you? Is the weather as good where you are, too?
