For a few days now, probably since yesterday, I have been feeling unable to concentrate on what is going on in my story. It is as if my 'well of inspiration' as well as my focus for the story has left me. I don't wish to go on and begin to complain about this, but it does upset me. To counter this I think I need to do a recap, which might prove interesting for those of you reading my blog but have yet to read my story up to now.
The first chapter includes two important minor characters named Sara and Amy. After waking up in separate rooms, the two girls meet up and are soon chased down the corridor into a separate hallway. The girls are swiftly killed after their employer and her henchman reveal themselves. The Head Maid orders her henchman (or personal servant) to clean the mess, and then ascends to the Main Hall to greet the main characters as they arrive at the Castle doors. (This ties into the beginning of the third chapter, as the protagonists both travel to the Castle seeking employment.)
The second chapter explains the situation the main characters are in since having left home to live independently from their parents (who wanted to marry off the two young women; this has yet to be integrated into the story, but will be included before story is finished). The two girls seek employment in the town, but only find one position as maids in the nearby Castle.
Although I have begun to work on the third chapter, I am in a rut of sorts. I know what I want to happen, but I wish to be sure of my decisions before writing something I will later want to change. Please wish me well as I attempt to gather my thoughts and continue with my story.
