Day 21: Working late

I'm still at it; I ran some errands during the day and started my writing at about 4pm. K is at gaming night, so it's just me and The Rogli here while I work.

I'm at a point in the story where a lot of the activity is going to be taking place on the overnight shift on the oncology ward at a hospital. Here's where research fails me; I can't seem to discover if it is quiet, noisy, busy, eerily inactive? I plan to visit an oncology ward once someone gives me permission to, but I don't imagine I'll be allowed to come on over at 2am.


I'm also trying to balance a blooming infatuation between two characters while one is seriously ill. I have some experience with this (not with cancer, but with major illness), and I can say, it would have taken ONE HECK of a guy to distract me from how craptacular I felt. I'm trying to work that fact in to the situation of the ill character, but it's hard when I need the plot to go this way.

Four chapters went out to K, Sue, Nicole and Nate...I'll be interested to see what they have to say. I'm on page 133 right now, two and a half pages into Chapter 6.
