Writing Progress:
Today's Progress: About a hundred words. Argh!
Comments: Bad writing week so far, due to a combination of a character I hadn't thought out fully, insomnia, and overwork. I think I've managed a total of 200 words since Monday. Life sucks.
Snips: From this weekend, when the writing was good:
"Child, think what you're saying. You've just accused me of being a hired killer. If you're wrong -- which you are -- then I would be extraordinarily insulted -- which I am. And if you're right, how exactly do you imagine a real hired killer responding?"
Endice opened her mouth, then closed it again.
"Think carefully," said Elliot. "Let me know if you come up with anything pleasant."
katfeete: DUDE. "The Woman in White" weighs in at 250,000 words. Word processor count.

Quick note for the writers on my list: I've started a new blog, PubStalker, which (as the title suggests) is a log of my attempts to figure out who the heck is buying what in the specfic market. There's already RSS and I'll probably get it syndicated to LJ before too long. If you think it might be of interest to you, head over and take a look.
