2,000 words today, and a great many scenes groveled through. I also--at 111k--figured out a very important bit of characterization that makes an important relationship all the more tragically dysfunctional. This is an especially frustrating part of my writing process: I get stuck and stuck and stuck, but apparently my brain needs this time to grow important bits. I just need to reduce the stuck time so I don't blow any more deadlines. :P
Darling: Through snow and shifting torchlit shadows her eyes met his, and he felt the weight of her name on his lips. She turned from him, the shape of her shoulders a shutting door.
