My current project wordcount is 9,808. I managed to move the story to the point where Tom discovers that he and Elli are going into a life-or-death mission, and that she has at least titular control of the mission. And he’s found out how much is riding on their success. I’d hoped for twice as…

Back to Green Magic
Took Monday and Tuesday off because Matt had them off–his first two days off together since everyone in the house was so sick we couldn’t move.

Taxes, Green Magic, and Plot Clinic
I forgot—just flat-out forgot—one huge source of receipts: Stuff I bought via the internet, and for which I received internet receipts. All the other stuff is done, but I’m now going through right at 2000 messages in three separate accounts, looking for everything I spent via the web and dragging them all into their own…

So now that I’m done…
Okay. The Mac sending mail sound has just echoed across the computer, which means the finished Ruby Key is on its way to my agent, Robin. I’m pretty wiped out, but very happy with the book. It wrapped at 63,000 words, which was well within my target zone, the new ending worked beautifully, (though I…
