Not as ON FIRE as last week, but...so hot...just, I generally hate living in Fresno, but I REALLY hate Fresno at the moment, like...am about done with Fresno at this point in my life kind of hate Fresno...just...so hot!
*glances at Canada, sees its also on fire*
*glances at Alaska, sees bear eating a moose*
Anyway, 27 pages left to type in. Session 94 is in the can. 7ish left to go from what I figure. Been averaging about 12k a chapter at this rate, so makes it 84k left to write, which is probably what I've written so far once these pages are in the word file, so...
Halfway there?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Everything has ballooned with this novel so far, so I'm leery, but...maybe we are?
I do have to remind myself that as the last School Story, this novel is wrapping up a whole timeline and has quite a bit more to do. Also there's the whole Class 2015 aspect, which...them's a lot of new characters, Raley. Granted they had their moment and should be more background now, but...pffft.
Story-wise...we're not even to the Winter War that represents the title of the book, so...
I'm fucking scared, guys!
What have I created?
It's gonna eat me!!!
Just like that poor moose...
You’ve created one of the best series I’ve ever read, and I’ll still be rereading them years from now! Still recommending them to all my colleagues in the London financial sector this side of the pond.
ReplyDeleteEver considered moving to the UK? No bears, and guaranteed no more than 3 days outside a temperature range of "meh" in any given year...
ReplyDeleteAnd all those nice Artificer types, of course!
Seconded.

Item the First- More words is GOOD! Yes, yes, I understand you have to WRITE them and then search for the hated and elusive typos and... and... and... But, you see, we really LIKE the words.
ReplyDeleteI WOULD invite you to Tennessee, except for the fact that the temps have been in the 90's for the last 2 weeks and the humidity likewise. And then there was the bear in our backyard on July 4th weekend, wrecking our bird-feeder. Um--- Western North Carolina is nice, though, as long as you avoid the snobs in Highlands....
Do not attempt to tame the Word-Monster- much like the Tyrannosaurus Bone, it reacts to sudden movements. The best way to deal with it is with AC, which regulates its metabolism. Otherwise, feed it the aforementioned typos. Word-Monsters like to feast on typos....
