I've been stumped by "Splintered Soul" for too long. The setting and situation was intimidating me to the point of my not being able to write it.
Luckily, I've had a brainchild about a different direction I could approach it from, and possibly take it in. So I'm going to scrap what I have and start over, re-using what I can.
If I don't edit this entry in the next 7 1/2 hours saying that I've finished it, please beat me.
Edit: Okay, beat me. I didn't get it done. BUT! But. I *did* write. In trying to start again with a new direction, I wound up having some insights as to how to approach it from the *original* direction and then incorporate the meat of my brainchild into a scene to break up and move along the Evil Dialogue Scene of Doom.
I'm still not promising that it won't suck, but at least it's currently sitting at a level of finishable. And I hold to my promise of getting it finished within the week. That is, before I go back to work on Wednesday night. So mote it be.
