This week I really must get that book proposal written - but I've got to see students about essays. Heigho. My repeated insistence that if they want to make an appointment they will have to sign the sheet of paper on my door seems beyond them.
Meanwhile I've completed a long and bloody Chapter 11, and am a third of the way through Chapter 12 and the half way point marker. In the next draft I'm going to have to do something about the who-do-you-meet-this-chapter structure of the even numbered ones, but I can't see the way round it with a character stuck in one place.
Of course, there are still fragments of chapters 13-24 in the word count so, seasonally adjusted:
553 words a day to finish by the end of the year - but I am still writing long.
Edit: 2000 words seems to have been attached to chapters 1-12 or 13-24 (can't work out which). Let's steal the words from 13-24 as part of the total until the 3/4 mark of Chapter 18 (7000 words written, 18000 words to go, so mid-November), when I'll point out the discrepency again.
