Squeezed another 260 words of novel out of the brain, and did a lot of xstitch. I'm encouraged that I hardly dropped the needle at all, especially as it's been a good long while since I've done the embroidery-for-therapy thing. Go, manual dexterity! At some point, I'll have four matching embroidered linen napkins. What I'm going to do with them, ghod knows, but I'll have them.

So, the afternoon session:

Project: Crystal Dragon
New Words Written: 260
Total Words: 17,825
Goal: 120,000 +/-

Took me too dang long to figure out the viewpoint for the next bit, but finally hit on a winner. Then I needed to build some stuff: a private room, furniture, a system of bribery, a document case, a title, some names. Thank goodness, that's all done.

More tomorrow. She said hopefully.

Apropos of nothing, I just read "A Night at the Opera" in Murder by Magic, and may I just say I would love to read a book--a series!--in that world, with those characters?

Lord Darcy crossed with Nick and Nora Charles. It was wonderful.

Since we're working on the last book for the existing contract, we're also kicking around a lot of ideas about what we'd like to be doing next. The notion of continuing with those characters novel -- or even multiple-novel -- length has come up. More than once.

Puuuurrrr.
