The Bad Guy

First, the latest word count.

82,729 / 100,000 (82.7%)

Now, some word on my bad guy: this Labor Day weekend is going to be some serious notes and scenes about Isolde/Enid. Below, the scene that first introduces her, and some pain for Stephan's dad Atreus.

( Isolde's First Scene )

This weekend I'm going to be rewallpapering some key Isolde/Enid scenes. (I'll probably just refer to her as Enid Stewart after this, as that's how she'll be written. You may never get the whole Isolde surprise. This book may never seen the top of a slush pile...) I'll be taking notes, thinking things through.

I think you gotta do that for your bad guys as well. Make them live. This one has excellent reasons for doing what she's doing. She's mostly unloved and mistunderstood. Yadda, yadda.

Hope you all have a great holiday weekend, and if it's your proclivity, you get some writing done! I probably won't write again until Sunday.
