I will, and thank you very much, Barb!
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Because books.
Deena, do I have the most recent one? I have the one you sent on Thursday. Which I read, and will comment on, unless you want to send a newer version.

I'd love to send a newer version, if you don't mind. I've incorporated Anne's very helpful comments in this one.
Thanks, you!

And chapter 5 is done. There are some things I'd like to modify, but nothing too major. So onward to chapter 6. This puts me at about 37,000 words.

I wrote about 1,000 words last night for chapter 6. I think that means I wrote 5,000 words Sunday. That was a good writing day. I was helped by having a couple of hours in the afternoon in addition to time at night.

Dang, Gud. It can take me an hour to squeeze out 100 words for a drabble. I am astounded at your word count.

That part had a lot of action. In those cases I can sometimes go almost as fast as I can type.

I have a heist coming up which will really slow me down. I'll need to do a lot of planning and drawing of floor plans.

I need to write 6,000 words by THURSDAY, and I'm panicking. Damn.

“Not dead yet!”
Deep breaths, babe.
Start with 1500.
