Mmm, hurt/comfort.
Jul. 19th, 2012 03:58 pmIt looks like The Denying Detective is done at last! After very long delays due to those two months of non-stop writing prompts, I've churned out the rest of the chapters this month and am fiddling with the epilogue now! I'll let it set, read it again later, and hopefully post it. Then I'll update The Night of the Moving Wound and start the next Perry mystery.
I go through different phases of what kind of hurt/comfort to tinker with in stories. Sometimes I want blood with the injuries. Sometimes I'd rather have just a good old-fashioned knock on the head (still my favorite). Right now I seem to be in a mood to examine characters being stabbed. OW. Sampson was hit by a flying knife while protecting Hamilton in a blurb. And Leon was stabbed more than once by the madwoman in the climax of The Denying Detective. Lots of friendship interactions going on, with Hamilton being worried about them.
