Well - I've got 243 pages on Magpie, and another scene from Luong's POV done. He's been one of the harder characters for me to get a handle on, and I think I'm going to have to go back through the manuscript and read each of his scenes in order to figure out if this one fits with the groundwork I've laid. It's getting to the point in the manuscript where I have so many layers/plot threads that it can be hard to keep track of. I'd promised a critter an outline of the chapters he'd missed a few weeks ago and just haven't had time to get to it, but it might be time to try to put that together. I've jumped ahead, though, and am now writing the scene where Dianliao meets the man she's going to fall in love with. Because it's a fun scene and I want to write it, so there! Hee hee. I may not get to "adult content" as quickly as ebear, but I'll get there eventually :P

It would help, of course, if I wasn't so darned tired from rehearsals! :) Didn't get to bed until 11pm last night, but I slept like a log. We ran Act II twice, each with the different leads, and are running Act I tonight. Then I taught a new sculpting class today. But I'm quite excited because the class is only a half hour long - wicked easy to teach, but I get paid by the class, so I get my normal pay rate. And the women in the class (it's a corporate fitness center, so they all work together/know each other) seem quite nice.

Boss just left on vacation for the rest of the week. I shall have to good employee and find things for myself to do. Wish me luck!
