the turn

right now I'm writing a very brief, nasty story, and waiting for the turn to occur. While I'm waiting I'll take a sec to explain myself--I'm talking about writing and writing, thinking I know what the story is about, and then I get to where the end is supposed to be only to find a dark cliff. The turn then, is the moment when the story's core reveals itself as something I hadn't anticipated.

The draft title is "Exoskeletal," and I think it's a horror story, but I'm not sure. It hasn't announced itself yet.
