Nov. 14

Welcome to Montgomery Sword Author's blog!

Tomorrow as midnight turns to Friday, Nanowrimo for 2007 will meet its midpoint. I'm pounding away on Mary at the Old Railroad Trestle, trying my durndest to reach 25 K by the time I stop writing on it tomorrow. Right now (while breaking to work on an Assignment) I'm at 21,581.
I say I'm stopping to do the coursework, but I think it's also because Mary has yet again surprised me; make that "freaked me out.

Nov. 13: wc 21,581 and counting

Welcome to Montgomery Sword Author's blog!

Despite a late start, the writing went well; I only worry now I've over-foreshadowed the end!
WC: 1550.
I'm feeling good about this again!

Nov. 12

Welcome to Montgomery Sword Author's blog!
Missed out on writing on Sat. Nov. 11 and Sun. Nov. 12 because of preparations for the three courses I'm teaching and one of the student courses. Also had Content segments to work up and upload. Accomplished no other writing at all (though a good deal of writing on Sat. for the Lesson prep.)
Nov. 12, Monday: word count 17,784
I now know not only the Final Death (which I knew from the moment of the story unspooling on Oct. 30) but two penultimate deaths--which I now (Nov. 13) think may become three; and I'm seeing how to drive my heroine further and further into the close trap of circumstances which embed her in conflict with herself as well as her social group.
