As I nearly finished my first draft of Harvest, I went back through and read it from start to finish.  The ending was feeling a little weak to me, and I ended up going with a hybrid of my original idea ( which I felt was a bit too dark for general readership in the Halloween contest, and what had kept me from finishing it ) and my new, lighter finale to the story.

I’m working on that transition now.  Other than a few odds and ends, I’m more or less replacing one scene with another earlier in the story, and then writing the new ending ( which is only modified a little )

Mulling over that Wood tale and the one I’ve dubbed “Flesh” as well.  As always, a little getting done on Lowborn and SOTM here and there as well.  It’s sort of a good thing I didn’t crack down on Lowborn, because as slowly as things are getting released at Lit now, it would have defeated my design of rapidly releasing those chapters at a rate of around two a week.

Hoping things improve after the Halloween contest.

Back to Harvest.
