Maybe if I put the MI2 soundtrack on, it will spur me into new writing heights.
Meanwhile, for a hit of ultimate cute, go check out Ben.

La Booque
I broke 65K yesterday afternoon. Yay me!
I have a sneaky suspicion that Chapter Two is going to be deep-sixed. At least, that’s going to be my recommendation upon submission of the manuscript. It’s not bad, it just really doesn’t fit the rest of the book. Well, maybe we could rearrange the chapter order. No, no; it just doesn’t fit anywhere.
Today I’m going to further flesh out highlighted bits of info that I left for later. Again, I’d like to set down 5K today, just to get to 70K, but I seriously doubt that’s going to happen. Today is going to involve research and fact-checking as well as writing, so I suspect that while I will be doing something productive (thanks, Ceri!) and it will yield accurate facts, those prductive hours will not be reflected in word count.
Oh my gods…
I finally figured out where I recognise David Thewlis from.
It’s Dragonheart. He played Einon.
*choke*
Argh!
I’m always so awake after orchestra. It really gets the adrenaline flowing, not to mention the blood.
We kicked, by the way. Absolutely.
Serenity News!
For all you Firefly fans, Nathan Fillon posted an entry on the Firefly Blog about his first day of shooting on the film Serenity.
Speaking thereof, this is the first promotional poster for the film:

Book Update
Today’s total: 2,198 words
Total word count: 63,050
Today was a bit of editing, plus finally a couple of pages of real writing near the end of the afternoon.
I’m 4/5 done. Why, why, why are these last few K so difficult?
(d) none of the above
All hail t!, who through asking me about the programme for the upcoming Canada Day concert led me to discover that the right sidebar wasn’t rendering the middle third at all in Internet Explorer.
It’s been fixed. The culprit? A tildy in a decorative position. I kid you not.
If you use IE, please, please get yourself something more reliable, and less asinine. I recommend Mozilla’s Firefox – quick to download, small program takes up less space, and it’s free. If you’ve never used tabs, be prepared to experience a world of wonder.
Click on the pretty icon and read up on it. Give it a go.
