Light at the end of the tunnel? Not so fast…

Wasn’t it just a week ago that I said I could see the light at the end of the tunnel on the first draft of my novel? Well… not so fast.

I’ve been having trouble figuring out how to move some of my storylines forward, so I sat down and made a list of all the scenes and/or events that, bare minimum, need to occur to get me to the finish line.

The answer? Twenty-eight more things!

Some major scenes, some minor ones, but all of them vital to the various plots and subplots. Sigh. My work here is just beginning, it seems.
