I've posted the third and final chapter of The Good Wife. I pounded it out over a couple hours yesterday afternoon. It was a fairly quick write.
I need to get a revised version up, because there are always the inevitable and annoying errors that leaked through. Not many, and they're small, but I'd rather have the best version on the site than not.
I'd like to explain one small bit that I didn't get a chance to pay off and that's Kara's reaction to hearing the name of "Dr. Carter" - the hypnotherapist. My idea was that Carter was a part of Kara's yoga circle and she would be nervous about her friends discovering her husband is impotent. I knew it wouldn't really pay off in this chapter, but if I ever wanted to continue, it would hopefully present a clever call back.
Some authors think that everything has to pay off immediately, but I don't think so. I have faith in the readers and I'm not too worried if they have to think for themselves. I'm sure someone in the audience was able to draw a line between Kara's mention of her friends using hypnotherapy and then a mention of the doctor a few lines later.
Anyway, I just wanted to tie that up as I don't think I'll be writing more about John and Kara.
Thank you to everyone who took a look and offered me invaluable feedback. I appreciate it.
