Well, on the bright side, I got 3700 hard-fought words on Lesson 12 of HTRYN.
On the dark side, I’m too freakin’ fried to do any fiction.
So.
How are your words coming along?

read with hunger, write with joy, live with passion
Hi Holly, I have just discovered all your wonderful material and have started going through it. Have written 3,400 words in characterisation sketches from your Character Clinic – such fun, and although it is not word count for the novel, I am getting to know my characters a lot better.
Thanks so much for sharing your expertise. Joanna
No typed words; I’m working through the free modules from the HTTS sign-up sheet. (Hardcore; thanks, Holly!!) I’m just going to lurk for a couple of days and and focus on work and word count. School starts again next week, and I’d like to be further along than I was at Christmas break. š
Very glad you’re finding the demo modules useful. š

The Princess, still dressed in a Guard uniform, takes a lift up to the docks and the door opens on a firefight. And she’s on the side with the Guards. With her crew and the escaped slaves on the other side. The sergeant in charge of the Guard detail grab The Princess and she’s really worried until she realizes they’re waiting for orders. So, she says that they shouldn’t worry no matter how bad this looks because she’s got a plan and she goes over to the slaves to act as a “negotiator”. They use the Princess as a “shield” while she’s giving the thumbs up to the Guard that she’s got everything under control.

A little backround on the Darkside, and a few more issues between two characters than I expected. . . But over all, I think it’s for the good.
