SL Day 6

Last night I found my copy of The Custodians, so I read "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" in the bath today. I thought I had a copy. It was on my dining table, and bought in Windsor in 2001. I have no memory of being in Windsor then. Ah, Windsor, Melbourne. Good job I checked.

Reading:

LII: Richard Cowper, Twilight of Briareus (1974)
Thriller set before and during a new ice age - more psi powers on display and more time travel ish stuff. Disappeared into a manuscript to avoid a proper ending.

LIII: C.J. Cherryh, Gate of Ivrel (1976)
First of the Morgaine trilogy - with pages that are bad Scrabble hands ("Delo'ruv was in Addhgno..."). Volume two tomorrow, volume three Monday.

I also finished watching season one of The Clangers, which gets political toward the end. I might watch season two next.

SL Day 7

Apparently a day of rest (but I'll go to bed with a C.J. Cherryh).

Have written some stuff up - I need to make time for the writing or take better notes.

End of week one, and nine novels read, two films watched, and one series - The Clangers. Seasonally adjusted word count (a fake 10k for biblios):

39500 / 120000 words. 33% done!


If I write 500 words a day, I finish 10 October. I think that's ok, but I'd rather that was 30 September.
