Hmmm, I'm working on a new short story and I have to say that Dana's obsession is how much she hates her mother and why hasn't she cut the woman off yet? Which obsesses her far more than the giant raccoon-shadow-beast she saw last night outside her hotel or the woman she saw fighting it with a deck broom or the little shadow-raccoons that infested her hotel room's entertainment center.

I LIKE HER. :D

I hope you've gotten through the audits okay! They sound like a real pain--today so far has been all emergency paperwork and Dealing With People in Japanese, so I hear your pain. (I did get a little of the Lego Batman writing in, though!)
