Another good writing day, more than 1,400 words, though it went much slower and had a sort of tedium that yesterday's work didn't have. Still the story is shaping up marvelously. It is, however, beginning to look like I'll overshoot the 8,000 word mark that Bill Schafer suggested. That's what happens when I carry a story around in my head for two years, as I have with this one, before I actually sit down to write it. It'll probably be closer to 10,000 or 11,000 words when I'm done, which is starting to look like will be Wednesday, not Tuesday.
We have a good lead on a house in Providence, so that's encouraging.
And speaking of Providence and moving, I'm thinking I'm going to have a great big, final pre-move book sale of Ebay, starting sometime in the next day or so, to reduce somewhat the load that has to be transported. I'd only be accepting payment via PayPal and all the auctions will probably be limited to five days. I might throw in a couple of rarities though, maybe even a manuscript copy or two, some ARCs, some Death's Little Sister stuff, who knows. So, watch the blogger for details.
I go make sleep now.
