PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING AUGUST 13, 2022

 As I post this, I have broken the 13,000+ word mark on SOLITAIRE 2: THE AGENDA, but am still on
Chapter 8 trying to figure out how to successfully end a car chase in Cancun.

As previously mentioned in past posts, staging any action scene in a non-visual medium is a challenge, having to rely only upon words to convey what's going on.

Not that it can't be done. A lot of authors have accomplished this task before me and I am persevering on the matter but, having never let the Continental United States—let alone the pleasure of visiting Cancun—it's taken a lot of research.

Drivers there do use the right side of the road and have the normal traffic lights: red, yellow and green.
But did you know those same lights were also used as COVID alert warnings during the height of the pandemic?
Also speed limits, and many other rules and regulations, are strictly enforced with the local authorities taking a dim view of lawbreakers.

So you can see the work that I've already accomplished and still have to complete this chapter.
In any event, I better get back to writing now.

Take care.
STAY SAFE!😷
And I'll see you around the Internet.
