Hopefully things will go faster now

  I think I'm over one of the big humps now.  I wrote Jacob and Jael up to the brune attack and from here it should be pretty smooth sailing up to meeting Balt and the battle against the brune pack.  I'll need to read those chapters over and make sure they fit smoothly into this draft but I should be able to jump ahead and think about what else needs trimming between meeting Balt and the battle at the castle.  I know Jael's chapters may need to be re-written so her feelings for Jacob and Balt are more conflicted and confusing for her but on the whole, I'm optimistic about today.  So much so, that this after noon, I'm going to do some writing for my IM gaming night.
  And, can I just say, managing a critique group is a lot of work.  Oy.  Still, if it helps people, I guess I don't mind the extra time.  Speaking of, I have a critique to do and then I'm off into the land of the Dragon Riders.
