Not so deep as a well
Sunday, October 10th, 2004 08:13 pmSqueezed 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.
