I'm actually surprised at how much I've had to Google so far since I have a totally made up setting. I guess all the stuff I'm constantly adding to my notes would be Google searches as well in real life.

How long has it been? Long enough she could lose weight and be dirty and etc? Because that could make a lot of difference if she's not someone they know well.

About two days, she's a total stranger when they are robbed by her and apprehend her, they only need to not recognize her for about 10 minutes.

At the moment I've got hair changing from red to black and going from curly and loose to straight and not loose, pony tail perhaps.

Chapter 2 is done. Chapter 3 fun has begun, although I will have to pop back into chapter 2 to insert a detail that somehow I forgot while writing it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

People. People, people. Not you people, those people.

You know my favorite illustration of "check your metaphors" is "His eyes slid down the front of her dress"? It may have a challenger: "[Name] watches him intently with big question marks tattooed in his eyes."

Ow. Owowowowow, and OW!

That's awesome. I'd still have to go with the first one as the champion though.

I got a block of time for writing during my vacation day and I'm now plowing through chapter 3 quickly.

DW has starting reading chapter 1 and 2 and writing down comments about stuff. It's a biased opinion, but she has been really positive about it so far. She's a smart, well-read person, so I value her opinions and comments. Her grammar is better than mine too, which is quite a help.

Thanks! I'm up to about 45 pages on the word processor, so I figured it was about time to let someone read what I had so far to make sure I wasn't going off in an unintelligible direction.
