Was minding own business yesterday, working away on revisions, when yet another kissing scene came and slapped me in the face. And there was no mistletoe around anywhere.
Got through it and continue to trudge along. Am at exactly mid-point, which is a bit further than I thought I’d be. Today, will probably get through two more scenes, one of them with kissing (sigh) and with any luck will feel too depleted to write the inevitable sex scene that comes next. Thereby saving it for Saturday because I’m taking two days off the WIP, starting tomorrow.
And here’s another cheerful thought: after I get through the sex scene, there is no more of that stuff for a very long time. In fact, no other sex scenes at all and I think only ONE MORE kissing scene. Which is not even about kissing, but more who gets caught kissing and what ensues. And it’s not what you think. Subverts every expectation, that scene. Even my own.
Happy Thanksgiving.
