turpsI've been writing today, and it's not going well. I've actually done three pages but I suspect they're not that good. I keep getting tied up with things. I'm writing Daryl and his grief is making me feel sad. I try to distance myself but it's not working. He was remembering singing in the car before everything happened, Simon was complaining about the rock music and Daryl was laughing at him. Then Daryl flashed to Simon dead on the floor, and I kept tearing up. Not good.
Then I realised that I really need a time line doing as they're about to find someone and I don't know if it's possible that he can still be alive. Not that he lives for much longer. Man, I'm becoming the bringer of death. Fear the author as she will kill you. They'll ask for stories at Storyfinders with the biggest death count and mine will be right there lol.
But yes, this guy has to die and I'm not sure if he could have survived that long trapped like Blair was. Maybe he could have been pulled out and is slowly dying of internal injuries. Might have to google how long you can live with internal bleeding.
I'm also wondering if there's some kind of river in Cascade. I have this scene planned where they actually get to wash, they're all a bit manky and dirty just now. Actually maybe a stream would do. They wash, then the sex, the argument, the make up, the dog, travelling on, the discovery, the reunion, the talk, the death, the grief again, the end. Then we move to happier times!
Lol, you've all helped again. Back to the misery.

canon river in Cascade
Date: 2003-08-14 06:55 pm (UTC)Yes! I'm watching/copying "Deep Water". Remember Jack's body wasn't in the car?
Dialogue from the transcript --
"The car was pulled from the river"
"the river's currents would pull him from the car and take him downstream"
"that one was found in a tributary almost nine miles downstream."
"all the rains? The rivers were overflowing?"
So, at least one large river, and several smaller tributaries. You have your river!
