returning to work
Feb. 17th, 2006 06:59 pmThe boy is watching a movie I have no particular interest in seeing, and I'd rather stab myself through the hands than grade today, so instead I'm writing.
"A Mask of Flesh"

I'm experimenting with a word meter to see if a visual indication of my progress helps promote a feeling of accomplishment. Of course, I haven't the faintest clue how long the story's really going to be -- I believe the Zokutou meter was created for NaNoWriMo writers aiming for a set goal -- so that 6000 is totally a guess. I know that Neniza is cooling her heels in the petitioners' plaza, and the lord is about to show up, so I might be more like halfway through.
Or not, depending on how much description I find myself indulging in. This is a lush-description kind of story, and I haven't even gotten to the lord.
Anyway, time to break, since I haven't yet decided by which of two routes Neniza's going to get to her goal. And besides, I'm hungry.
