Do any of you remember watching that adorable '60s film starring  Hayley Mills, titled That Darn Cat!, when you were younger?  Granted, it was the '80s when I saw it as a child, but I do remember loving it.  That could be because Mills' character was solving a crime, and I love me a good mystery.  It could also be because I really liked any Disney movie starring Hayley Mills, with The Parent Trap at the top of the list.

For those who haven't seen the movie, you can read all about it here.

Anyway, right now I am lamenting about the comical chase I am having to nail down my WIP.  That Darn WIP is wandering all over the place, getting into trouble and basically misbehaving on all levels.  It's as stubborn as a mule, refusing to gel together on the most basic of plot points.  The bones of the story are there, but they won't let anything more substantial stick to them.  And I write a scene only to realize afterward that it needs to be rewritten to make sense with the scene before it.

Its a comedy of errors. 

And I'm not laughing.

The plan is to get a working draft ready to share with my agent by the end of October (my goal, not his).  But at the rate I'm going, the end of October is looking less and less likely.  I've got to get to the bottom of things if I'm going to keep on schedule.

That Darn WIP!
