Not great, but certainly quite good!

Well, I wanted to be about 2K words ahead of where I am right now. But this is certainly nothing to sneeze at. And if I get some more done before I go to bed tonight, I'll be much closer to meeting my real goal.
The sixth chapter is really scary and good, I think. It's the first really scary thing that happens. the next chapter is the last of the seven introductory character chapters. Now with this next round, I have to make them do all the stuff they're going to do to advance the plot. Then I put them all in extreme peril, then I resolve everything one way or another. So even though there are 4 sets of seven chapters, people will be corssing paths a whole bunch. Neat, eh? Yeah...I thought it was clever also.

As it stands, I'm going to break for dinner and TV. I beleive it is a new L&O SVU tonight, which I will, of course, watch. And then Daily Show and Colbert Report. Then back to work unless H wants to play some more Silent Hill which is totally creeping me out.

woohoo!

Good for you :)

I'm not that far along, but I'm further than I've ever been before (so pathetic) so I'm feeling fine.

How are you feeling about what you're writing?

Thanks!

So far, I like it very much. I have a lot of ideas and am pretty well plotted out the rest of the way. Just a few variables to think about. It's a pretty compelling story, IMHO, and it's just starting to get scary.
