Click

I just finished the second draft of the Click story, and have posted a couple more fragments from it: a revision of the one I posted a couple of weeks ago (because the first version was horrible; first drafts should never see the light of day, they shrivel up like vampires and crumble into dust); and a new one, a little vignette about the love interest.

I’m having a lot of trouble with this story. It’s about grief and love, and I’m not sure I understand either emotion well enough to write about them, so I’m having to constantly guard against maudlin sentimentality and cliche. Not sure how successful I’ve been, every time I come back to it I see something that makes me cringe.

Anyway.
