Lots of exciting things happened today, but almost all of them in Ghost Ship land, which really leaves me not much to talk about.  The Leewit’s new battery worked all day, chomping down over 4,000 words and still has 64% power left, which I call impressive.  The next test is to run it with the wifi on and see how many hours of life we have.

And!  Lest I forget — tomorrow is the fourth anniversary of Hexapuma’s birth.  I trust that you will celebrate appropriately.

Progress on Ghost Ship:

79,494 words/100,000 OR 79.49% completed

OR

317 pages/400

. . .yeah, this is going to take more than 100,000 words, but! Since I have no clue how much more, we’ll just keep the clock set like it has been and run overage when the time comes.

Ghod, I’m glad this writing thing is a Science.

Well, since we expect it to be Absolutely Wonderful, however many words it takes to get there are the number you need.

Perhaps you should take a hint from Ms. Mendoza when answering her question about how many toes should a prebatout have? A book should have as many words as it feels comfortable with.

Yeah, just think how confusing it would be if you were making it all up as you went along. Oh, wait... that might not be the best comparison :-)

Maybe your recent track record of intended book lengths and resultant is excellent News for your readers. IIRC Theo's adventures was suppose to be a small sidebook project that mushroom into Fledgling and Saltation plus Mouse & Dragon. If you are not vigilant Ghost Ship will morph into a multi-book series.
