I am still very busy, trying to get to 85,000 words by Nov. 30. It will be a squeaker, but I’m really hoping to get to the end of the story (and hoping that it’s around 85k). Last year, I wrote 60,000 words in November, but that got me only 7/8 through the story. I then dithered on writing the scary climactic final showdown and aftermath, and didn’t get the first draft first-drafted till spring. This year, crappy first draft will be done by December!
Meanwhile, while resting my fingers, I had to play this video for everyone in the house. Great line: “She put my head and whole camera in her mouth, and did these threat displays, but then the most amazing thing happened…” “Threat displays” is a mild way to put it. I also liked that she brought progressively deader prey to show him what’s what.
