Well my novel writing is proceeding but at a slow pace . I'm at the point where I'm expanding the outline I did by either writing actual scenes or parts thereof or by writing about the scene in a telling not showing manner. The story is a full blown space invasion tale and that means a lot of people, places, and things. My problem is keeping all that straight while not totally turnong off any creativity. In any case It's moving along and if I keep to schedule I'll have this thirty thousand word description done by the end of the month. Wish me luck.
