It is nearing the end but is it dragging on too much?
Also is she annoying? Don't you want her to have pulled herself together by now?

Any feedback really appreciated!

Thanks!

"Doubt not yourself lest others may be encouraged to do so!" 'Moffat' Well, he hasn't actually said that yet, but he will. Seriously, Niki, part of the attraction to the whole work is the car crash inevitability of it all. Is she really going to have a Damascus moment, start the twelve steps and SUCCEED? Will that be as interesting as the alternative? If it is, then you will have pulled something off, in my opinion. However you resolve it, and I'm sure you will, I'm sure your writing will carry it off, good luck, and keep going. Ewan

Thanks for that Ewan- has inspired me to keep going. You're right, I won't think too hard - that's when the doubting comes in...

I've put comments at the end of the last chapter - but please please keep going. She is such a complex character and just sits in the middle of the whirlpool of her own making - so typical of an alcoholic. It's fantastic - keep at it!
