That's why I'm fascinated that you actually give updates on how many words you've written, and on general stuff like you've been doing. I've had ideas in my head for a long while now, and even if you wroking makes me go "hmmmm... maybe I should get off my ahem", I could never go this public with ym developments. Hell, I don't think I'd be able to say anything until I had the publisher's deal signed and stamped and double signed and all that ;)

Anyhoo, you've already spoilered us that someone dies, so, might as well put us all out of our misery and get it done already!
