Writing Progress
Good: The rest of the Aphra novel is basically outlined, and I know most of what happens...
Bad: ...except for the climax, currently listed as "and then they do a thing."
Good: I like writing by the seat of my pants, and if I thought I knew what the climax looked like I'd be wrong anyhow.
Good: I've finished writing the annoying-but-necessary transitional bit before sh*t hits f*n for the rest of the book. (Annoying to me, hopefully not annoying to readers.)
Bad: I've looked over how long scenes have taken on average, so far, and have counted up remaining scenes, and that's a longer book than I thought. Which means either busier writing nights, or a busier editing season--because Baby M's birth date is not going to be affected by whether I've finished my other big projects.
Good: I find deadlines very motivating.
Fingers crossed.
