Reason for stopping: chapter three is in the can!
Music: weird covers and We're About 9, alternating.
Lilly: standing guard by my chair.
Everybody dance now! No, seriously. With chapter three in the can, I'm getting a firm handle on my world, my situation, and best of all, my main character. (Especially when writing a first book with a new POV person, I can take a few chapters to really figure out what I'm doing. Which is what the second draft is for, obviously.)
Can I just note that this book is so damn fun to write? It should probably be criminal for me to spend this much time giggling to myself, and it's not just because of the mice. Also, it's a great excuse to go mucking happily around in cryptid biology. I am a very happy blonde right now.
I will now go eat tuna fish, watch television, and relax, all bathed in righteousness and glory.
