Finished the first draft of the fourth Grace novel last night, and it goes to the readers today for feedback.

Tentatively titled "Cloud" it's about 95,000 words

and you notice something they could do to blow your plotline up, do you

1) Ignore it and hope people don't notice because what you want to do is cool

2) Paper it over with some nonsense nobody is really going to believe and proceed. Because cool

or

3) Fix it and come up with something else

I was coming to the end of a story I had planned and asked myself, "Why wouldn't one of them just do X?"

The challenge is now to come up with something as cool as the original idea.
