Word count -- The Mourning Edition.

Current stats:

Words: 1,222.
Total words: 11,260.
Reason for stopping: if I don't go to sleep, I am literally going to pass out.
Music: random things, including a small child telling me about her day.
Lilly: presumably back in Concord, unless she's gone looking for me.

I'm at David and Michelle's for the weekend, but would have felt bad if I didn't at least pretend to do some work on The Mourning Edition. So I pretended my way through a thousand words and a big chunk of the current chapter, which is, y'know, pretty impressive, if a little bit unnerving. I should pretend more often.

Please note that as of this entry, The Mourning Edition has its own icon. That means it's a real book. Also, that means I got my Photoshop working for a little while today. All things come with time and with grace. (I have no idea what I'm going to use as a Discount Armageddon icon, I really don't.)

Progress is pleasing unto me, and I really like where this book seems to be going. We're still in setup, but it's very solid and substantial setup, and it makes me happy. Also, I got to map the driving route between Birds Landing and Berkeley, and that confused Google Maps to no end. Life is good.

Zombies improve everything.

Pretty much! It's just great that the world finally sees it.

I tend to sound less like a Disney Princess and more like a happy 1950s musical actress when I get plastered. Except for the random inserts of hysterical giggling.
