I’ve been having a hard time working on this part of the story and getting these pages finished.  I wasn’t sure what was slowing me down at first. I had actually built up a bit of a buffer in the last month and was working along with a nice lead, and then I came to this segment and all of a sudden it became difficult to get the pages done.  I only recently realized that it was because I’m uncomfortable with the part of the story where a kid is endangered.

I was an avid reader of Stephen King’s novels, and I never had problems reading the conventional ‘horror’ tales with ghosts and vampires, but Cujo and Pet Semetary were difficult, unpleasant books to read…

I’m going to have to follow the story wherever it wants to go, but this is going to be difficult….
