The Stars and the Cookie Jar

Well, at least one of the stories, I'm not happy with. I think I realise why -- two very similar events in the same space -- and I wonder why I didn't catch it in the notebook stages. They'll get ripped up when everything is finished.

I see the shortcomings, believe me. But hopefully I'm addressing them before the end. For Mir'ele, that's the next story (the one I'm working on currently) ; for Raissa and Fayge doing more than sniping at one another and actually being characters, the one after that; and the end of everything (and everyone!) the one after that. I've set myself an Arbitrary Deadline; let's see if it works. "The Graves Growing Here" is, in addition to Giving Me Issues, 100kb long; if you want a look, I'll email it to you.

Work now. Bleh.
