Eagles Over the Kennebec

There is a photoblog of Rookie's Gotcha Day Celebrations here.

Not to overshadow Rookie's Celebrations (which -- everybody wore themselves out and they're napping now. I have been informed by His Gotchaness that there will NOT be fireworks this evening, so -- OK, then)

As I was saying before I got caught in my own parenthetical -- not to overshadow The Celebrations, but! I have finished writing my scene at +/-2,080 words, which brings the WIP entire to!

+/-51,490 words.

And there was MUCH rejoicing.  Also ice cream.  Because, by damn, I earned ice cream.

Here, have a celebratory snippet:

"Jen Sin!" Catie's voice was sharp from directly overhead. "He has a knife!"

"Well of course he has a knife," Jen Sin said, astonishment sharpening his own voice. "He's not an idiot."
