Serial Fiction Experiment Update

Well, I haven't brought back to life anybody I killed off, but I have found myself adjusting the plot of previous posted segments of "In Loco" a bit. Much earlier, I wrote some new material for Part 1, going into more detail about the curse and how Snape knows about it, and why Harry can't just pop back to Hogwarts.

Today, I decided that Snape knows the Trio were after Something, some artifact, but not that they are horcruxes. It'll be fun to see how he reacts when he finds out what these kids were expected to find and destroy on their own. The horcrux hunt does not interest me in the slightest, and this story will likely end before that gets going in earnest.

In general, I am finding this experiment nerve wracking, but it's also forcing me to be more centered on the latest section, with little regard for what will come (hence the revisions) and it's making me take note of how other authors solve problems in ways I might also employ. A lot of the fics I've been reading, and especially reccing lately have been teaching me quite a bit.

I am getting some neat flashes of future scenes, though, and trying to work out where they will fit in. Sadly, the best ideas come while I'm driving or otherwise unable to write them down....

Happy night to all.
