Today I reached 40,000 words for the month, which makes me happy.
What also make me happy: I don't think this ms will reach the 50K goal, so it might end up being a Sensible Length after editing. Everything I i have is either Too Long or Too Short. Why???

Couldn't get to crochet club so went home and watched some Red Dwarf then did today's writing.
It just came flooding out. Another cute scene. I think I'm living vicariously through my character. Oddly, it seems to have helped.

A good session today. Some interesting dynamics being played out (or will he when properly edited).
Pikari the Pink's back! (I don't think I will, but I'm kind of tempted to have her fight a balrog and come back as Pikari the Paler Pink)
Some pictures don't feel like they're worth a thousand words, but these next few are all going to. Full page spreads with multiple characters so they need to be rendered in sections and composited, not to mention getting the binding stuff looking good. Why did I do this?!
