The Bitter Joe

I've been using twitter to post my results for NaNoWriMo (I'm at 13020, and about 200 words behind).

So I thought I'd use this blog to post some thoughts about what I'm writing.

My main character, Jason, is going insane. Or he thinks he is. I'm taking after Phillip K. Dick and some of his more psychological mind-f*ck stories, so it should seem very confusing.

However, I know exactly what's going on, a fact that pleases me to no end.

Speaking of endings, I don't have one yet. I know eventually Jason's going to figure out what's going on, and at that point, he'll have to choose... does he go back to how things were, knowing full well that at least some of what he sees is a lie, or does he push on, going somewhere entirely knew (and possibly work with the antagonist to find a solution).

I'm not sure if I know the answer yet. I'm not even sure if I want to know.

For now, where we are in the story, his brother's coming in to help him. This should get him actually exploring his dilemma and unraveling it. Can they figure it out, or will Tom get sucked in to the madness as well?

:D I'll find out tomorrow.
