I just committed to writing two freebies around the time when Summer-set will be released, in the hopes that it'll drum up interest. They both have themes, and they're both due sooner rather than later. Surely I'll be inspired just in the nick of time for each?
"Gutter-wing" is at the point where I'm going through and filling in the holes left from writing scenes out of order. Some just need a bit of spackle (I think we used toothpaste for the push-pin holes left in our college dorm rooms from our posters). Others require a crane for all the necessary shifting around. And yes, there may be a wrecking ball involved for other parts.
I really like how this one fits naturally into the required length. Maybe I'm getting used to writing novellas; I remember how I had to shoehorn a subplot into Summer-set to get those last few thousand words. But there was a span of years between writing the first and last sentences of that one, while I had a clear vision for this one from the start.
