It's Veteran's Day, so I'm not feeling obligated to do any real work... :P
I did feel obligated to catch up on my wordcount, though! First, I rearranged the files that I had, so that there weren't 20 files all out of order, with arbitrary scene breaks and gawdawful jerky transitions. Then I recalculated my wordcount and found I'd been about 9 words off. Those are an important 9 words! Then I wrote a few words, and now my count is where it needs to be. I no longer hate my story - though there are still Bob and Betty running around, and one scene, because I was so running out of steam ends with: Ann eventually dies in fire. Very tragic. I couldn't be bothered to write it out after I made my count, and I haven't gotten back to it yet, because I had IDEAS for the next bit and wanted to plow forward.
I may write more after dinner - I have some direction now, and one thing I can safely say is that I adore my world. It's terribly interesting (IMHO), and, after like eleven years of developing it, what do you know, there's actually some depth there to draw on!
I may work on some non-fiction, too - I'd like to finish another article for EMG-Zine, in particular.
