So I sat down yesterday to write chapter three of the new book, and realized in short order that:

1. While writing the first two chapters I had invented more than was on the page.
2. What I had invented but not written would be necessary for the two chapters that were to follow.

So I realized I was going to have to revise those first two chapters, and maybe even throw them out and start over. And after I realized that I realized I was probably going to have to do this multiple times with the first few chapters of the book. Because I am literally making everything up as I go along, and so am apt to create stuff that will be needed in the chapters that are already written.

This is probably another reason not to post chapters until I've got things well under way.

So I didn't write a new chapter yesterday, I just daydreamed out the sort of stuff that I'm likely to need.

Then I wrote another chapter for BoM.
