I think I’ve gotten through the hard part. There was a two-chapter section that made absolutely no sense anymore because I’d cut the stuff that made it make sense, and … well, anyway, I think it makes sense now. I’ll probably make read it tomorrow and tell me. :) I might just turn this thing in Friday. miles to Minas Tirith: 186
Miles to Minus Tirith

You aren’t particularly idealistic, and are more apt to practice a kind of situational morality,…
halfway there!
All right. Against the odds, I reached page 250. This is against the odds for a variety of reasons, starting with having played CoH until 2pm, and including the moral equivilant of the Novelist’s Event Horizon: I’m making small changes that take a long time to work out, so I’m spending a lot of time on one or two pages and not feeling like I’m getting anywhere.
