The Latest Quick Version...

Writing isn't going any better - I didn't get up as early as I'd planned, and the whole thing cascaded from there. I plan to have an earlier "to bed" than most nights this festive season, and maybe get some paper writing done, but I really don't think the story will be completed in time for New Year. I just have to do the best I can - and so far my "best" isn't that great.

Not long 'til the end of the year. Hopefully I can make a fresh start January 1st...
