Just treading water

Nothing new or particularly enlightening to post here. I'm still chugging away at figuring Finn out. I'm trying to embrace the no-pressure exploratory spirit of drafting to hit upon some fundamental truths about him and and his job that can add up to a solid emotional arc, and I'm trying not to think that I'm just throwing spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks and that by this point my pasta really should be in a bowl. So far, that's amounted to three scenes of Finn and Imogen being achingly sweet and or/sexy with each other that add nothing to his emotional arc, and a few fragments of introspection or dialogue that take stabs at some kind of progress.


There's a question here of whether Finn, the story, and myself would be best served by taking a break and working on something else for a stretch. But that triggers my clingy instincts so I mostly ignore it and fixate harder. You know, like a healthy person does.
