I hate it when characters get out of control. Well, mostly, at least. I mean, yes, it's useful sometimes, since it means the words flow faster (woohoo!) but it reaches a point where things just start getting out of hand. I mean, it's bad enough when they start going places and doing things, leaving a trail of plot summaries and partially written chapters in their wake, but now I've sat down and started on detailed character backgrounds.

Ghod, I'm even working on rules for the bloody magic system. (Yes, I am a geek, why do you ask?) I swear, when all this is done I better end up with at least one published novel out of it, or these characters are in so much trouble. If I start drawing out city maps I think it's time for a long vacation.

(I suppose I shouldn't complain too much. At least they've started doing standalone short story things so I can start actually releasing things. With any luck, maybe the end of next week)

Yeah, I know, threatening fictional people isn't exactly the most stable thing to be doing...
