*Fanfare!!!

Yes! I have finally got back round to writing some O&C. In fact I've spent all of today on it.

Chapters 1 to 6 have been significantly re-written, and the brand new chapters 7 & 8 have been uploaded!

It might be a good idea to re-read from the start, or from at least Chapter 3, since I've made a few changes which just won't make sense otherwise.

Even better news, I now know whih way to take the plot. I'd hit a bit of a quiet spot in the story and I didn't know how to keep it interesting until the next good bit. I think I now know what to do.

It's gonna get good=-)

Anyway, enjoy. BTW, FYI, O&C is now at around 16000 words. How long is an average short story?
