I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

I'm feeling a bit discouraged and confused at the moment. I don't know how much to describe things, some people read it and it seems fine, other people read it and say there's way too little. Meanwhile, I still want to cut at least 20,000 words. My scenes are starting to feel like a house of cards, it seems like every one I think of cutting causes problems down the line because of interrelations. Ugh.

Do you need to cut the words or do you just want to? You don't want to reach an arbitrary number and find out you're standing on half a foot.
