Chapter 6 is Live

Sorry about the very long wait on this one.  A few things have been going on, my daughter was born recently for one (which was wonderful).  But now I'm back and writing again.  This newest chapter I whipped up in just a couple days, which is nice since it usually takes me a full week.

I've been very pleased with the rewrites for this novel.  It seems a lot more grown up.  It takes itself more seriously now, but in a good way.  This is really the first time we see Randy in any detail.  The first time I created this character, I'd simply just been planning to kill him off in a later scene.  But Randy survived that scene.  It surprised me how savvy he was.  I also came to like the little guy despite his sillyness and childish flaws.

It seems that as the stories go, Randy becomes a stronger and more capable character, really stepping into the role of monster hunter.  But it's whether or not this shift in attitude changes his character that remains to be seen.
