Poor Doug -- Miranda did definitely not have any pebbles and ponds in mind when she did what she did in the previous chapter! But I like Dr Stevens, she seems like a very good person, and I also liked the conversation with Doug.

Yes, I guess the story has taken a different turn from what I originally thought in my head. Or more accurately--where I want to get to in my head is a rather lengthier route on paper than one might have originally planned! However, I have a tendency to 'rush' and this might just be a rather good exercise in patience and build-up for the author (much more so than for the reader.) ;-)
Yes, a bit like Jake's lion, my Miranda doesn't always think (doesn't always want to think perhaps) about anything other than the means to an end and protecting her own. It's certainly a good set of principles for her nearest and dearest; others--not so much!
Yes, hopefully all the Dougs of this world have a nice, handy Dr Stevens but sadly, likely not.

*lol* It sounds like you're describing me! I mean, I don't write like you, but the process seems to be just the same. "where I want to get to in my head is a rather lengthier route on paper than one might have originally planned!", yes, exactly. And I, too, have a tendency to 'rush'.
I know; I feel sorry for all the Dougs of this world, but right now I'm mostly thinking about this particular one. ;) What's your policy when it comes to handing out spoilers..? I want to know if there will be romance! ;)

I think a few of us write in the same way. I am currently attempting NaNoWriMo and must confess that it is absolutely NOT working for me in any way, shape or form--other than heaping constant guilt on my head that I am so far behind.
So at least I can rule out one more method from the things I am confortable with. ;-)
Spoilers, huh? I shall assume romance for Doug? LOL Hmm, nothing on the horizon that I specifically thought of... but... my characters tend to sometimes demand their own things. And you may have just planted ideas in his head.
Naughty! ;-)

Haha, okay, it doesn't surprise me that you haven't thought of that. It is possible to read too much between the lines sometimes. ;) But if I have managed to plant some little idea in his head I'll be happy. :) I guess the woman is quite a bit older than Doug, but why would that be a problem... ;)
