The whiny story of slogging through writing my first novel.

Talk Talk Talk

Parker and Kelsey take some down time, eat, sleep and get to know each other better. That means there's a lot of talking in chapter eight. I know I shouldn't pile on the exposition, but I also know there needs to be some making-your-aquaintanc time. Eh, it'll all change in the re-write, right? ;-)

Indeed -- and keep them physically busy as they talk: piling up rations, building a fortification, etc. As long as you balance the movement and the words, neither will seem like filler or exposition.
