Reason for Stopping: Sleep. With a little bit of luxury reading before. Introduced a new character and whole new plot thread and am supremely happy about it. Initially, the character was going to start out evil or whatever passes for evil in this book, but I ( Read more... ) -

Reason for Stopping: In a little bit, I have to head out to do some work that I suspect will drain me of no small amount of emotional energy, leaving me in a state only for Domino's and The Walking Dead afterwards, but I'm nonetheless happy with what was done ( Read more... ) -

Reason for Stopping: Bedtime/luxury reading. Cloudsplitter has gotten very, very interesting. And so has this NaNoWriMo book. I think you can tell by now, if you couldn't already, that I've read Infinite Jest.

Reason for Stopping: Bedtime. But really I wanna squeeze in one more The Walking Dead episode tonight. There's so much I want/need to say about how incredible of a start this is and how much fun it is and how it's just flowing, spilling out of me like I opened ( Read more... ) -

Reason for Stopping: Done.
Notes: Some of this is simply bracketed notes for scenes. Other parts are copied wholesale from the previous draft, but it is done. I can leave it alone and get to some of the other things I've been meaning to write ( Read more... ) -

Mean Things: Caravan massacre.
Reason for Stopping: Study/work.
Notes: This was yesterday's total when I broke the tape on 50k for the month. Essentially the work of the past 11 days. Some of it is repurposed from previous works but it has all come ( Read more... ) -
