Ah, yah, it's a different creative process that you can't fix in edits. Right now I'm just doing word vomit. I like what I have so far, and the words are actually coming, so that's a plus, anyway.

But the fact that I'm 5500 words into this thing and haven't hit the first pinch point yet bodes ill for it not being an unwieldy bastard.

Welp. I'll just have to see what happens. This is definitely an adventure...
