swan_tower5008 words for Labor Day.
It isn't labor if you love what you're doing.
Almost done. Almost. It was five thousand because this was the climax; yesterday I wrote the first of the two scenes I've been wanting to write since I put together this proposal more than a year ago, and today I wrote the second. Ding, dong, the plot is dead, but the denoument lives on. There's a bit of work to be done yet -- at least one day's worth, possibly two. We'll see.
So very nearly done.
Word count: 130,090
LBR census: Blood and love, and some horrible, horrible rhetoric.
Authorial sadism: Memento people know I was never sure which Merriman I was crueler to, Francis or Philip. There's no Philip Merriman in this story, but Galen's taken his place. 'Nuff said.
