Word count -- MIDNIGHT BLUE-LIGHT SPECIAL.

Words: 3,794.
Total words: 3,794.
Reason for stopping: The Agent called. Hence my posting this the next morning.
Music: lots of dance club music.
Lilly and Alice: cat tree and STALKING, respectively.

What's this? Why, it's the first official word count for Midnight Blue-Light Special, of course. What's that? The second InCryptid book, and the sequel to Discount Armageddon. In short, my reward for finishing the fifth Toby book is the sweet, sweet embrace of ballroom dancers who spend their spare time acting as a guidance counselor for monsters, talking mice, brooding monster-hunters, and mathematicians with anti-freeze where their blood is supposed to be. Because that's just how I roll.

I have the first chapter and prologue done, and Very is starting to respond to my request that she pay attention to the plot outline. For Very, this is very rapid adherence to the rules of the road, and I'm extremely proud of her. And yes, she's a fictional character, but I haven't been working with her for a while, so I have to remember how all this works.

I'm back in the cryptid-filled streets of New York City, and I couldn't be more pleased about it if I tried.
