I’m currently working of some back chapters because they impact from the point where I’m currently up to, chapters 24/24, and with a little twerking this part is coming together and will serve it’s purpose as a lead in to what happens later on, and make sense where it before it was a little out of the bluish.
I’ve got a new character, but what her role will be beyond this part of the story is yet to be determined, but I think it might end up being a walk on walk off but part with lines.
Other than that, the novel is proceeding, and the end, three or four chapters long is sitting at the back of my mind, and after a few more days, as we get closer to the end, it will become clear.
There is the plan, but as we are all fully aware, something things don’t go according to plan.
Thrills, Spills, and just a dash of Romance 
Having done and completed three, I miss the challenge . . . unfortunately, this year, like last year, life got in the way.
Good luck with completing it.

I am working on some back story in my novel as well. It is interesting to me how this fleshes out my characters so much that while it does not necessarily change the direction of the novel it definitely changes how I view that direction. I now have to decide whether the back story needs some space in the novel or not.
