day 30, 50103 official

Day 29, 48000 words

Pretty much finished story however. Trying to backfill a few scenes that became necessary due to later changes in the story. Still, word count is kinda neat. I think it's the first time I ever hit a triple zero count.

Now one day behind, but I only have two days left. I keep thinking I have more.

time to write final scene, then the mop up. Let's hope it doesn't go too hard tomorrow.

day 27, session 2, 42507

Found a bunch of new, really good OSS Training videos as well.

Only 2500 behind now.

day 27, session 1 40932

Over the 40k mark. 3 days left after today--although I admit i am hoping to hit around 3-4k words for the day.

About to leave Istanbul. This is extending a bit more than i thought it would, Which is good--as it also adds a bunch of scenes that were needed previously, fills in some gaps and shortens the scenes that were so hard to write earlier.

Apparently, it's hard to keep writing when you have nothing to say. Who knew?

Music for next story: Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Yes, I've already decided.

day 26, session 2 39806

day 26, session 1, 39455

So here's the first set for the day. Now I'm off to run again, which I'm not looking forward to [whenever am I however?]

I really hate running. But it works. Also I want to do it while the weather is nice.

Also, I need to figure out what is going to happen to make Del panicked about Julie which will drive the last quarter of the novel. Right now we're having lots of fun in Istanbul, but it's not going to last forever. He has to get back to France somehow.
