The Ticking Clock & The Dusty Cupboard

I’m trapped in The Expulsion Cupboard.

Or rather, the characters in my MG novel ‘Strange Bones’ are trapped in a chapter with that title. I have a page full of hideous sentences and it’s starting to get quite dusty in the cupboard. If I don’t push one of the characters into it soon, the thing hiding within will close the door and refuse to let me finish the chapter.

I’m supposed to finish the second draft of this book before November 1st.

Me, panic… Ha! I laugh at pressure. I mean, there are still 19 days until NaNoWriMo, and writing without a plot is brave not foolhardy.
