Yesterday fairly late in the evening, I had an idea for what comes between where I was and the finale. I started writing it, wasn't entirely happy with how it was going, but I've been thinking about it since then, and I think I know how it works. I'll fix it tomorrow, I hope.
There just isn't very much book left, so I should be able to finish this draft in a couple of days.
I joined critters so I'd have somewhere new to send it. My Chymera critique group has seen the opening already, and knows too much about the setting to come to it fresh. Joining critters worries me a bit. The last time I tried to get another critique group it just didn't work out very well.
Boyd, Ben, Jasmine and I played Merchants of Venus yesterday. It had been quite a while since we played it, so about a week ago I tried to get a game going, and it sort of fizzled due to lack of time and various distractions. So we tried again on a Saturday, and it went very well. Boyd won, but I think I would have gotten my winning total in a turn or two… I had a quadruple demand space spice run in the works when he declared his win. [sigh!]
I've been working on my Bazomi character in Poser. I modelled her hair in meshwork, so it's a lowres model, and the bangs looked way more like a helmet than actual hair, and the whole thing was too smooth. So I've been playing with transparencies and textures for it, and I think it looks much better, although I find myself wishing for better tools. I also made a bump map for her vest so it would look a little more like the birds are stitched on rather than painted.
