A wreck of the most glorious sort

I totally forgot to do a Week 2 check in, didn't I?

Well, I'm in the middle of a Camp Nano mess and I'm out of town on motel internet so I won't go into detail on how things are going. Perhaps it's for the best. After all, I did just have this conversation with Jay that pretty much entirely sums up how things have been with my novel:

Meagan 11:36 PM
Oh shoot, I just remembered Becca's still alive.
I have way too many characters.

Jay 11:37 PM
oops

Meagan 11:38 PM
Ok, well, she's gotta die soon.
Heeeeeeyo death scene
reason number 98234 why my story can no longer be taken seriously

Jay 11:39 PM
at this point it's a matter of pride to finish it, huh?

Meagan 11:39 PM
Absolutely.
This thing is a wreck of the most glorious sort.

Um... okay, it's not quite so bad. Really, I'm just thrown off because one of the antagonists was supposed to join the protags and instead decided to kidnap them. Whoops. (And did I mention this antag was an evil bird?) I'll do a better post in a couple days with some actual excerpts and stuff. Till then!

writing, chats with jay, camp nanowrimo
