C6 Progress

Unlike other weeks, I have actually written a decent amount while it isn't the weekend - on Tuesday, I wrote over 2000 words, and after another heap of writing last night after work, Chapter Six is now at 3841 words. Originally, Chapter Six was going to introduce Angelica's sister... but I have actually decided to remove that character altogether. So, it will be following pretty much all of the main characters, which is something the story has not done prior to this chapter.

The chapter is currently titled Fly Like An Eagle. It is far more fast-paced than chapters before it, but it's yet to actually hit Pen Expers - however, it is offering important insight into "the pianist", who has decidedly become rather crucial, and the importance of Ian Treale and hitruix in the current events. Yeah, Chapter 4 was probably the worst of the bunch, but the information in it is important, especially in this chapter.

One of the main questions roused in this chapter are the importance of each character individually - previous chapters showed that they have a tendency to be sent out in a small group (C1) or pairs (C2/3), but the actual reason each character is involved in the Circle is at least being questioned in C6, with a few answers: eg, Angelica's 'mission' will be revealed, whereas August's will be kept a secret (with good reason...)

I dare say I'll have this chapter done by Saturday, giving me another two days to get into Chapter Seven, which will probably be called Pen Expers. Tonight, I'm going to be trying out the local writer's group - the only reason I have never done this is because I usually work late on Thursdays (it runs on the first Thursday of each month), but production night was last night... so yeah. ^_^
