And just like that, I'm caught up almost.

Whelp, I've completed and postedChapter Seven in case anyone's interested in that sort of thing. This chapter is very uneven and rambling and will likely undergo most editing of any chapter thusfar. Worse yet, I have only the vaguest idea why this character needs so much damn back story. I feel like a writer for LOST, only with less money and without meeting Jorge Garcia.

16,562 / 50,000 (33.1%)

Of course, I STILL haven't written a list of talking points for my big talk on Friday.
I guess I'd better do that before moving on to chapter eight.
Eight is the first chapter that gets heavy into plot because the first seven chapters introduces all the characters. There's only one or two more important people to meet later on.

' I feel like a writer for LOST, only with less money and without meeting Jorge Garcia.'

And you can't blame other people.

Damn girl, that sucks. Because if you are online you will almost certainly get spoiled re: last night.

Not by me though...

I love the novel. I've already told my officemates all about it, and I can't wait to read more. I want to helpful, so I noticed two things: in Chapter Two Chester says the dead girl was found in Jimmy's car, and in Chapter Two Signe says she found Anna Banana splayed out on her parent's lawn. Are there two dead girls? And in Chapter Six, Raymond is 36 but has worked at the library for 32 years. You are writing so fast! I'm so impressed. Seriously, I'm all, "You guys, now there's a MONSTER!!" And how do you say Signe?

Yeah, there will be lots in the way of continuity errors in this first draft. Part of the job of writing so quickly.

Raymond is 36 and had worked at the library all his adult life. I was going to make him older, but I have a plan...

There is one dead girl, and she was found on the porch of the parents home by Signe, which is pronounced SIG-knee. My fourth grade teacher (and the first one to knowingly over look my abusive home situation) was named Signe.

I'm delighted to hear that you love it.

I'll just call her Mama Sass. ;) I think it's amazing how fast you are writing this. I'll keep reading and commenting, unless you want me to stop because it's not helpful. And also, yeah, the whole office is on nanowrimo updates. They love your book too!

Awesome, I'll be sure to let you know when you can command them to buy a copy.
