Thanks for asking this question. In formulating my answer, I realized I was nearing the end of the book and dawdling instead of racing. That made me ask why, and that made me realize I'm not racing to the finish because I need a couple more pieces of plot for it all to fall into place. I figured out those in about 20 minutes.
In short, by asking this question you probably will speed up my ms completion by a week or two. I can't just let the characters figure it out because often enough they don't know what's going on until I've forced myself to write 60-80 pages of plot that goes in the wrong direction.
I'd say your speed means you are going in the right direction. Finish. Wait. Edit/fix.
And thanks again for asking your question! My characters appreciate it!
Your Pal,
Li
