Eureka!

You know how, when you're writing a story, and you're not entirely sure what the drama is going to be or where the characters are going to end up, so you just start writing scenes and hoping that somewhere, they'll start to resolve themselves?
I hit that point today.  I was just doodling, filling space with a Sunday dinner, scene, and all of a sudden, it came to me, and I was like, "Eureka!"
Okay, so I didn't actually shout Eureka (nor did I in any way say it out loud), but I had my 'aha!' moment, and it was good!  I am officially on my way to finishing this book.  I'm so happy!

I know I've found my writing "groove" when I start to have trouble separating myself from the characters when I stop writing.  This is the point I have reached.
