She had renter's insurance, and documented what she owned. She didn't have enough to replace everything, though...so she just replaced her work stuff and a couple pieces of furniture. And three sets of cheap-ass clothes from Wal-Mart. She clearly shares my priorities. :) She’s a practical girl, is Kettan. She had renter’s insurance, and documented what she owned.

Right now I need to clear my head and see where to take things. I did not outline this project. That was my biggest mistake. Then again...I did not really have the time. Hopefully with a little break I'll have a better idea of where my characters need to end up. I am so close to the end. So close. I can't quit now. Holly- Your story is amazing. But I have one question: How does Kettan get the money to replace the things that were stolen? Have not written since the end of Nano. Right now I need to clear my head and see where to take things.

I found myself enjoying a character who only has this one scene as he dies at the end of it! Some of it will need tightening up in redraft. OFL: 1031. Loads of short scenes in this story. Got onto scene 100 today. Something to tick off first thing Monday. RFW: 1076. Hadn't got a lot of today's scene figured out, so some ad libbing. Went okay, though. Friday’s words:

Something inside Peters was telling him this didn’t feel right! Those sounds and the way the man had stood and now the speed to which he was running! Peters had been a district 400 metres champion, he could actually sprint that distance in his younger years, he watched the bald man cover 400 metres in around 28 seconds ‘That’s way too fast! Jesus! Olympic standard is around 44 seconds’ he felt anxious and scared, a warning bolt shot through his brain ‘something isn’t right!’ This man was running at him with intent! ‘Intent on what?’ Dean H (UK) Hi All

They go well with the plot and came out--in my opinion--pretty suspensful and entertaining, but when I go back and start chopping the page count they might end up on the block. 700 some words yesterday, and another 1000 today, though I’m not sure how many–just like the snow I’m watching as I type–will stick.

Not bad for the first day. I'm in Istanbul time, so I'm ahead of most of the US by 7+ hours. I'm really excited! 726 on the Demon WIP for me. Not bad for the first day.
