Novel: day one update.
working title: Shards of Moonlight
current word count: 2170
pages: 4
(actually, that's the title of the old book, the one I've set aside for a month to do NaNoWriMo. it's a good title though. and the two books may tie in at some point...)

The page count, much like the word count, is taken at face value direct from MS Word. The manuscript will seem longer when I reformat, because it'll be doublespaced, etc. I don't really care. This is just the first draft--a very rough first draft, because of the emphasis on speed--so by the time I work this mass of verbiage into a usuable manuscript it will be quite a bit longer. (and shorter in parts. and taller, thinner, wider, heavier, etc etc. This book will not be so much written, as re-written.)
I may do some more writing before midnight, but I seem to be doing well and I only got 4 hours of sleep last night so I may just go to bed early. As in, 9:30 kind of early. I'll let my dreams do some of the writing for me.
