Irons in the Fire

I think that would be a great title, but that’s what’s going on with me today. Writing, taking care of the ‘store’, working an outside/one day job, and of course, the ever-present household chores. I think I’ve learned to juggle rather well.

I am in the midst of a western right now. I’ve hashed out the characters, know where it’s going, but now I’ve got some cleanup to do. For example, my girl’s husband has three brothers in the beginning of my story, and about three quarters of the way through, one disappeared, so now there are two. What happened to the third? No, I didn’t kill him off, I just got so involved in the telling of the story that I lost track. Ever do that? Lose track of someone, or realized that ‘someone’ didn’t need to be in the story in the first place, and have to go back and do some damage control? I’m there.

Tomorrow I’ll be re-reading it for clean-up.

Out for now.
