naomi_jay Yes. I have worked through the pain to add many words to Night and Chaos today. I'm inordinately proud of myself. I kinda feel like I'm about half way through now, so I've changed my estimated final word count to 40k. I'm also toying with the idea of changing Ryan's name again. I'm so torn - I love Ryan as a girl's name, but people do keep assuming she's a man. But no other name suits her now! I suppose I could change the spelling so it's more obviously feminine (I'm sure ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
yolandasfetsos pointed me towards a site with feminised spellings at one point). But can I live with Ryanne? Maybe it should be Rian? Rianne? Rhian? Someone tell me what to do!
I've also dusted off The Fire Inside(which also needs renaming) and added some wordage to that. I'm determined to write this novel, dammit. Scarlett and Ash are my favourite characters of all time EVER, and I need to force them on you all, guys. If I can persuade myself to let go of the idea that this book needs to be OMGPERFECT! then I'll be fine. In theory it should be the easiest book I could possibly write; I've lived with this world in my head for seventeen years. I know all the characters, all their story arcs, everything. I just need to get over my self-imposed ridiculously high standards for it all.
