Well, back to wondering what I'm doing...

I uploaded chapter seventeen of Taking Nicky and may wind up with three more, depending on how this goes. Rett learns Niko is controlled by Vance, financially and career-wise, and is willing to help him escape that control. How? I have no idea.

The chapter ends with them headed over to Niko's condo in Santa Monica to look over his taxes from last year. Maybe some financial statements. None of which will show a damned thing except Niko gets wayt overcharged for everything so has little money left over.

Rett's also got Ben and Liam back on his side, and he's willing to accept them...and that makes no sense to me. They worked with Vance to hurt him and he's fine with them still helping him out? Realistically, I can't see it...but I have a feeling Rett has his reasons.

That was something I learned a long time ago...that everyone has his good reasons. It's a quote from Jean Renoir's The Rules of the Game. Funny that the English title is in the plural; the original French is singular. La Règle du Jou

Perhaps I should take that more into account with my world, a simple change that means everything...and reveals the limitations of the world.
