AH HA.

I've had the feeling for awhile that the opening of the new!Ben&Janni story is kind of...lame, for want of a better word. We start with Domestic Bliss, Ben showing off his Mad Hacking Skilz, we find out that he works for a PI, and their wedding anniversary is the next day. I think I tell it in an engaging fashion, but still. I'm the kind of person who likes to throw my readers face-first into the action, and this scene is nice, but it doesn't do that.

But I've figured out where I need to actually start this--at the prison, where my Bad Guy escapes and hatches his Nefarious Vengeance Plot.

*evil laughter*
