Well now... that's something O.o

Just remember; no matter how bad things get... they can always get worse.
At least to my mind anyway...
Okay, here's the situation, I went to the doctor last Friday (the ninth) and got my meds straightened around and got put on an anti-depressant, so my temper isn't quite so hair trigger anymore; I feel a lot better, I just hope it lasts. Now, I managed to get some work done on the story the other day and managed to finish chapter eleven; I then came to a very startling realization that I knew exactly what I wanted to happen for chapter twelve and on. While I don't know exactly how many chapters I have left but what I'm looking at doing is finishing out the entire "Escape" story except for the very end bit, then going back to the "present day" timeline and revealing why everyone is gathered around the television in the preface, then doing some kind of transition back to the main storyline, and reverting back to the flashback style from the manuscript. <I still agree with
purplemonkey that the current third person memory style just doesn't work very well; it does for the "Escape" but definantly wouldn't for the rest of the story leading up to that, and then again in the story leading up to the preface scenes... then after that would kind of just be assinine.
What I find interesting about all of this ^ is the fact that up until I got put on the new meds... I was suffereing from a very heavy case of writer's block... and now things just seem to be rolling along.
