A good portion of today's effort was in adorning the dialogue bones of a scene I wrote a couple of weeks ago with the flesh and clothing of narrative and description. Then I had to go on to the second half -- the get-him-drunk-so-he-can-grieve half. That took me down at least two blind alleys befre I got the conversation steered where it had to go. I finally did, and have brought it to the part where Marcus Birtwhistle finally breaks down. And I am leaving off for the night.
