Passed quietly in the night.

I have to wonder as I look back at my various attempts and their repeated failures if SD is ever going to come to fruition. In the attempt to create a fantastic world where my readers could connect with characters whose flaws were as deep as their part in the story, where each character had deeply moving convictions I keep getting lost somewhere. Perhaps it's time to take this back to the drawing board. It seems the series had died quietly in the night when I wasn't even aware of the life fading slowly from it. However; one haunting scene keeps entering my head, perhaps I'll start with that and see where it takes me.
