I’m still working on two back chapters, which might become three,

But…

I’ve been steadily working on chapters 24 through 29, which were dependent on the framework set up in the two previous chapters.

It has actually made it easier to see where the story is going and make changes in both parts as I go along.

That now leaves me at Chapter 30, which is a major turning point for the story.

In the outline, I had the two protagonists doing one thing, and now I’ve pulled the plug on them, and they are doing something else.

The problem was that it was too predictable.

Still, now I’m at chapter 30, anything can happen.
