My head feels a little numb. I think the idea that Ritzko is finished is starting to sink in. I haven't opened up Artemis yet, my head is still a little too mixed.

I was going to look it over again, but I don't think there is anything I can do to it until I look it over with Kyle.

50,016 words and I feel exhausted just looking at the file. I 'm having a hard time wrapping my head around the idea that I wrote all of that from scratch.

Paisley prints and interesting guests.

Someone is going to hate the way I ended Ritzko, but in my defense it was always meant to be this way...or rather this was the better of two endings. I am not about to get into the delusion that vampires are sparkly nice creatures. Ritz is my proof of that. I know it doesn't fall into the story, but a part of me really does wish it could have been different.

But, this is the way Samm wanted it to end.

Why do I get such a kick out of the way Bastian talks to Ms. Helen?
