i should be asleep....
I should be asleep, buuuut I'm not.
Finished Chapter Seven. On to Chapter Eight, where the villain of this book and (crosses fingers) the next will make his first show. Ought to be fun.
Things are progressing much more quickly in this version of the story. I expect I'll hit the end of Act One by Chapter Fourteen, maybe sooner. Act Two is where I have not gone yet. Act Three (shorter than Acts One and Two) is just a misty part of my brain, but I do know how everything ends up.
I had an idea this evening for a type of musician whose form of magic is the ability to effect small pockets of reality at will. To be honest, this is not exactly a new concept, but the way I played with it in my brain was. I was thinking specifically of storytellers, and the control they have over our view of reality. Something I need to mull some more.
Aikido is something of the same, though it's more about leading mind (and thus, body) then it is about changing your reality. Though I will say that being on the receiving end of some of John Eley-sensei's technique can be a reality-bending experience.
