Broke 30,000 word on DW...

I've got the full book pretty much blocked in, but there are sections that aren't fleshed out yet...like Dair's assault trial and more remembrances of Adam's. Still...it's going to be a lot of work to break 50,000. What's helping is finding this impish photo that could be Adam.

This is what he becomes after meeting Dair -- like a happy kitten or puppy. Dair becomes his raison d'etre and he loves having someone who is strong for him but also needs him at times. Which Dair does when he's working. Right now I don't mention any tattoos, but I think he should have some. And maybe piercings. Things he uses to remind himself he's alive.

And this is Dair in the main part of the story -- dark and lost and moody. I have to be careful with this because he's starting to come across as something of a weak asshole. Him beating up a little homophobe named Bobby in front of Reverend Samuels' church and congregation needs to come as a shock to him. He falls into a animalistic rage at comments made by the little shit, something he never does.

I like the physical looks of Kyle Krieger...but no tatts or piercings for Dair. He's got his art and scars on his fingers from working with shards of glass; he doesn't need ink to make him feel alive.

God...I have so much left to do...
