As I (once again) write BG2, I find that I am having to consult the BG1 manuscript quite often.
Ellen isn’t mentioned in BG1. And Nikki comes alone to the bonfire near the end of the book.
Which means Ellen doesn’t appear until after the bonfire. Which puts it…when?
I seemed to have shot myself in the foot when I wrote BG1. I tried to not have too many time-related references in order to give the book a “timeless” feel. Most of the book takes place in winter. And they go to a ball game in early April. Kelly has to wait until “true thaw” to dig a hole. So…when?
I also mention the Gay Pride Parade in the beginning of BG1. Several people have told me they want to know what happens to/with everyone during the parade. Crap. That means June, right?
Ouch. Just burned out another brain cell cluster.
