Behind again... But on top of the plot 15,103

My valient effort to get caught up took a big hit when I was unable/unwilling to write much this weekend which is a shame. Thankfully, I wrote a fair amount today 2,500 words to be exact and I moved on from the first unsolved murder to the second. I am not exactly happy with the killer's motive, which I have figured out but I realize people have killed for worst reasons.

I cant post an excerpt tonight but I will tomorrow.

I am very pleased where my novel is heading though. My characters actions and personal ties aren't in conflict and I am actually pleasantly surprised with how much of the plot has come into focus so quickly. the only thing missing is a love interest i guess.... perhaps I will tackle that soon as one of my detectives is losing faith in his abilities.

If it's any consolation, you are well ahead of me in the word count. Looking forward to an excerpt and hearing about your detective's loss of faith.
