ugh

I've written myself into a corner. There is nothing quite so acutely obnoxious as discovering that there is no real way to go forward without going back to the beginning. I mean, unless I want the book to end with one of the guys going into exile or dying or starting an ahistorical war. Which I could do, I guess, but then it's not really a "happily ever after" romance novel any longer.

I think I've figured out how to solve the problem, but that means going straight back to the beginning and changing a bunch of stuff, which isn't something I should be doing while I'm in the writing stage, yet it's necessary. So obnoxiously necessary.

On the upside, hopefully once I'm done with this I can start moving forward again.
