It's been a while, hasn't it? My total output over the past two weeks is +2 words. (Deleted 13, changed 1 and added 15.) There has been a lot of story thinking though.
Work has been taking up a great deal of my time and energy lately. However, I am officially on vacation for the next week. My original plans fell through but I contacted other friends and will be heading east and north for the week. Along with visiting, there will be words.
I'll report in when I can. If you don't hear from me until next weekend, assume I'm enjoying myself too much to be on-line.

Progress - September 9, 2011
Title: Chaos Unleashed
Words Total: 23,490
Words Today: 303
Reason for stopping: Same as last time - It's getting late and I have things I need to do at home tonight.
Wordage I liked: Spoilers tonight, I'm afraid.
Things discovered: It would help to establish *where* people are talking.

I'm planning to be "minimally on-line" this coming weekend. Will that lead to more words? Look for an update late Sunday. :-)

Progress - September 6, 2011
Title: Chaos Unleashed
Words Total: 23,187
Words Today: 350
Reason for stopping: It's getting late and I have things I need to do at home tonight.
Wordage I liked: "My son came to see me before he left on his first journey across Trella." Julie kept knitting as she spoke. "He was not happy. I'm led to believe you had something to do with that."
Things discovered: Sometimes conversations need to be awkward.
*******
I had hoped to write many words over the long weekend. Other things kept me away from the keyboard - genealogy research (my own, not my characters), apartment things, sleep - but I did talk with C about what has been happening in the story and what I think I'm going to have to do to get this story told. I have two weeks of vacation coming soon (separated by a week at the office) during which I hope to add many words to the novel.
