hmpfSometimes We Believe, which, arrgh, looks worse every time I look at it. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
amonitrate's comments are a lot of help, though. But it's tough going. Oh so tough. I still think there's a good story lurking somewhere in that mess, otherwise I wouldn't go to all this trouble. But it *is* such a mess. What makes this so difficult is that it's mostly characterisation that needs fixing. And it's *Horsemen* characterisation. I'm not good at getting into the heads of immortal mass murderers. I'm not good at getting into the head of someone as old, cunning, and twisted as Horseman Methos.
Arrgh.

>Oh, and good luck with that characterisation thingy. It'll work itself out, you'll see. Maybe it's just time to put it away for a while and let the ideas percolate?
Nah. They've been percolating there for six years. That should be enough! *g*
