Writing Self-Indulgence

Cranked out two more chapters of my WIP this week - yay me!   As always, many thanks to my awesome beta reader  @belovedmuerto.   Thanks also to my cheerleader  @fuckyeahdeafandasexual,  who has been tearing thru the Temeraire series based on reading this fic --  which is the greatest compliment ever, IMHO! 

Now I’ve got Anthony meeting someone who took me as much by surprise as she did him. Seriously, it was like “Hm - he has to interact briefly with this NPC - ooh, what if she were ... ?”  Boom - major impact to story!   Thankfully I haven’t had to go back & re-writing anything I’d published already. 

I’m also establishing some villains (one of whom is really being an asshole to Anthony at the moment), which -- if everything plays out -- is going to make this by far the longest fic I’ve written. Actually, it already is, at  nearly 26k words & 10 fully written + 2 partially plotted chapters.    I’ve really had to start digging deep into the MCU to find my supporting characters, especially now that alignment is an issue.  (What does she mean? You’ll see!) 

The bad news is that these are  in-between chapters that are pushing back the introduction of a character I really want you all to meet!

Tony Tarracino (August 10, 1916 – November 1, 2008), commonly called Captain Tony, was an American saloonkeeper, boat captain, politician, gambler, and storyteller in Key West, Florida. He was a well-known personality in the city and has been called "arguably the city's most beloved resident" and "the conscience of Key West.

Anthony Tarracino was born in Elizabeth, New Jersey to a bootlegger father.. He dropped out of the ninth grade to make and sell whiskey, illegal at the time due to Prohibition..After becoming a gambler, getting involved with the New Jersey Mafia, and being beaten and left for dead at the Newark city dump, he moved to Key West, Florida, in 1948..

There he became a shrimper, a charter boat captain, and a gunrunner..From 1961, Tarracino was the proprietor of Captain Tony's Saloon at 428 Greene Street in Key West, the original location of Sloppy Joe's bar frequented by Ernest Hemingway in the 1930s

Tarracino was politically active in Key West politics running for mayor four times before winning office in 1989 by only 32 votes out of more than 6,000 cast.. He sought to "limit Key West's growth and to keep its reputation as a refuge for eccentrics and renegades who had found their way to the southernmost point of the continental United States. As mayor, he preserved Key West's daily sunset celebration but he lost a bid for re-election in 1991 to Dennis Wardlow, "prime minister" of the secessionist Conch Republic. Tarracino spoke of his two-year term in the office as "the greatest two years of my life.

Jimmy Buffett, who managed one of his unsuccessful mayoral bids, wrote and sang "Last Mango in Paris" about the tales of Tarracino. The song begins with the lines "I went down to Captain Tony's / To get out of the heat / I heard a voice call out to me / 'Son come have a seat'."
