Wow, I can tell I'm busy when I don't bother to update my whine-o-matic.

The trip to Mexico for business took me out of action for about 5 days, and I ended up way, way behind on the word count. Another trip to Chicago nearly wiped me out of wanting to continue, but after a marathon session I'm back up to within....uh.... crap, about 6k away from where I should be right now. Pewp. I'm at about 22k words and in Chapter 8. I'm hoping I can catch up this weekend. Last time around Thanksgiving weekend saved my sorry butt too.

As far as the story goes, it's humming along nicely with what I had originally planned. Eus was an unexpected addition and seems to be working out well, though I nearly killed him off. I decided to spare him and he'll return years later in book 2. I've added the 'interlude' page after I realized I needed a short chapter between books one and two. Hopefully book one will be done at around 25k words, right in the middle of the length I want for this one. No more 130k word epics that consume my soul for two years please.
