wordcount: 20228

Wednesday, November 9th, 2011

OK, this is quite a bit of text. I wrote this weekend to 15.6K, and today I wrote the rest. My target was 20K for today, so I’m pleased.
Of course when I wrote this story the first time I had already written up to 40K on day 9, but that’s OK. I had a lot of other stuff on my mind now. And once I do get cracking, I write a shitload.

Please do not mind the shoddy grammar. It’ll get better on the rewrite.
Under the link you find the tail end of chapter 3, chapter 4, chapter 5, and the beginning of chapter 6.
Enjoy :’)

(12.30pm) OK, that’s chapter two. Maybe I’ll add a little more to this one later, but for now it’s time to run some errands. 3K makes me happy though. :)

(4pm) 10K. I want to write more, but I need to get groceries as well.And I promised myself 10K today. If I happen to write anything else, that’s just bonus. Target for today is reached :)

(5pm) Wrote an additional 800 words, but they’ll be included with the next update.

(3pm) The day is only halfway done. I’m quietly finding some time at work to sneak in a little additional wordcount. Most of it was done last night at midnight though. I wrote 2K in the hour after midnight, and that was awesome. It is beautiful to be back with my girls again. A little bit of Sirka, a lot of Joy. And their voices are wonderful and familiar.
It’s like catching up with friends that emigrated a couple of years ago. The way they talk and see the world, the way they banter… it’s all so belovedly familiar. I’ve missed them. :)

(10.30pm) Okay, I think that’s enough for today. I finished the first chapter effortlessly. I added some stuff, I omitted some other stuff. The girls are still beautiful and chatty, and they just arrived in Zyx. 5517 words on the first day… I’ve definitely done worse in the past!
