I wrote a full scene! And I finished a chapter! Progress.
Today's sample:
Marcus surprised himself. He hadn’t planned on revealing something so private he hadn’t fully accepted it on a conscious level.
“Yet you are only truly happy when you are an exorcist. Your true self exposed for the world to see.”
“Yes.” Marcus looked at the doctor. He was good. He was very good. No wonder Mouse recommended him. Sure there was an excellent chance, Marcus supposed, he wasn’t the closed book he presumed he was. Somehow he knew that wasn’t the case. Doctor Ortega was in tune with him — unnervingly so. Does the pendulum swing both ways?, he wondered.
“We are more similar than perhaps either of us would like to admit. Both of us exorcists. Both of us men of faith. Prone to helping those in need. I wonder how far this goes?”
“Guess we’ll find out.” Marcus was thinking about their unofficial sessions, which they were due to start tomorrow evening.
