Ugh

I know that I can be long-winded.  But this is getting ridiculous.  I'm up to 160 slides, and I still have 5, possibly 6 scenes left.  2 of those scenes will add 13 more slides to it.  The other 3 definite scenes (2 weddings and a departure for college) I should be able to deal with in fairly short order (unless Melanie decides to try and reconcile with the Bradfords at Viola and Sterling's wedding - she has a tendency to do what she wants despite my best efforts).

I might break this chapter up into two parts, if it get much longer.  Who knows?  It WILL be up before the end of the week.  Two the scenes are actually written, the other three are drafted out, and the wild card scene will depend on something related to gameplay.  But I might push it off to the next chapter if things keep going they way they are.

And as a reward for my listening to my ramblings, have another teaser pic.  This pic actually isn't going to make the cut for the chapter, but I loved it anyway.


You cannot tell me that James has only 1 nice point when it comes to Cindy.  He adores her.

Some people regularly put out 200 page updates, but myself I prefer to read something a bit smaller. I think breaking into two is a good idea, although it can be tricky knowing the right place to cut unless you plan on uploading one part after the other.

Considering that the whole things is almost written, if I did break it up into 2 parts they'd go up at the same time. I think I'll wait and see what slide count I end up with when I'm done shooting and writing today.

I know there are lots of people who update with 200 page updtates (I read some of them), but I tend to average 160. There's just a lot I needed to cover this rotation. That's what I get for having the main characters so close in age - all their major life events happen at once.
