Sometimes my muses get completely out of control, I've noticed, specifically when there's a much needed conversation to be had and a lot of built up reactions to recent events, thoughts, inclinations, etc. that are being either prompted, exposed, or extracted. It messes me up when I need the conversation to carry a certain vibe and end on a certain note, but can't quite get there, or WAY do not get there, because, say, Mischief threw a monkey wrench into the machine. (It's always him.)

I have written a total of six pages for Chapter 21, but now have begun to make notes about why the vibes of the two conversations had aren't what I want yet. So now before I can move on what else happens, I have to go back and edit! oy...
