Finished the Outline

I've completed the outline for To Drive the Cold Winter Away, which came out to 7011 words, about the same length as the outline for Traitor Devil. So it does look like this will end up as a novel-length project. I'll have to see how the outline translates into text. If it ends up that long, To Drive the Cold Winter will be the first book in the Lady Seis series, and Seasons of Song and Mystery will be the second, once I come up with a replacement story for the season of winter. The three stories I have already put it well over minimum novel length, so whichever story takes the winter slot, the book won't be thin.

I've filled in a number of gaps my earlier attempt at an outline didn't, and there's a number of amusing things I was able to slot in naturally to keep the tone light.
