Chapter 3 is done, and we move on.
On a sadder note, the first thing I saw this morning when I started up my browser: Tommy Hanson, former Atlanta Braves pitcher, died at the age of 29 from what they’re saying is “catastrophic organ failure”. Every part of that just sucks. No one should leave this world at such a young age. But so it goes, and so passes one of the last great Braves pitchers. (There might not be another one, thanks to Moneyball, but I digress.)
Back to the story, though. I’m 3 chapters in, almost to the halfway point. The “man against nature” conflict is working, I think. There’s not a lot of action, but this was never meant to be an action story. (I’ve got others in mind for that.) Chapter 4, with yet another POV, should be a little easier, because I know where I’m going. It’s just the getting there that’s the hard part.
