Update will be late tonight.

And it may be tomorrow. I just had a twist in 'Forgive Those Who Trespass'* that may annihilate a good part of the plot I had planned. Or maybe not. I have to sit back and figure this out before I continue.

*OMFG, Harry, you were supposed to act stupid! Not all reasonable-like! 'A Potion Named Desire' Harry is the reasonable one, not you! Stop interrupting my plot!

Don't you hate when they do that? Yay, go Harry! (Sorry, his un-reasonable-ness was starting to make me itch to slap him.)

*laughs gently* I've been stalled on my series for almost a year, because two of my characters are literally sitting in opposite corners, pouting and snarking at each other (and it's not even useful snarking, while the third character is practically weeping with desperation. I can't get them to cooperate. Dammit.

Take your time, hon. It will resolve itself. Prolly at 3 a.m., when you'll sit up in the bed, hit your forehead, and say, "What was I thinking???" or "of course! It's so simple!!"

It's frustrating when they do that, isn't it? Like, you have no control whatsover...they rule everything.

Haha, so Harry's libido won one over? Haha, I always think its so funny when authors talk about their characters "running away" from them. I do love UST though, so I don't mind if you get his sex drive back on track :P

Oh, I know that feeling. I'm working on an original piece at the moment and have gone through four story plans already. My characters just will not do what I intended.

Fortunately they seem to know what they're doing, so my advice would always be to just go with it :)
