This title is actually one of my favorite sayings. I'm not sure why... but I've always thought it perfectly describes the feeling of knowing what a thing and not quite being able to grasp it.

Told you I'd be posting more. And even more to come over the weekend as I get them all through a quick edit. Gotta write while the words flow. Editing takes a minor back seat to that.

A Chapter. Yep. This is a chapter. Of the book that I'm writing. I've finally got the outline in a place I'm comfortable with and I think I can start weaving the remaining strands together and get us to a good place in about another 100-120k words! That's good right?
