Sat down this afternoon and thrashed out why Chapter Six of DL is making me so cranky. And, as is the way of such things, as soon as I'd written the question, I knew the answer. I'd brainwashed myself into following my old plot outline, which was creaky and implausible. So I'm going back to the last point that felt right, and trying again.
I feel much better for having figured that out. I apologize for being excessively grumpy the past couple days; it's how I get when the writing goes bad. Which isn't an excuse, but is a piece of cause and effect I'm still trying to get used to. Such are the myriad wonders of the human mind.
