Plugging away

ENDGAME status:

As I think I've said, I've finally hit the point where I can reuse much of the existing draft. Not all of it, but a lot of it. I'm currently working on Chapter 26, and will end up with 37 chapters, give or take. So hopefully, 11 chapters in 2 1/2 days won't prove as daunting as it appears to me at this moment. I have no idea why I'm so calm...

Thanks for the nifty picometer,
found in [livejournal.com profile] jimhines's group, by way of [livejournal.com profile] misery_masque. I tried to program it for chapters instead of words, but couldn't make it go. Looks like I can't cut/paste it, either. No time to play with it now.

Shout out to [livejournal.com profile] jpsorrow--the package arrived today!

Onward!

I hope this works...

The code you need to insert is:

This was mine. Replace 68808 with your word count, and 95000 with your total. Or you could use chapter count and chapter total.

Fingers crossed that this shows up properly...

Bleah. That didn't quite come out right. Try:

See--it won't take chapters.

But thanks for the box code. I'll plug in an update tomorrow.

calm is good

It certainly is a change of pace.

Yay!! It's arrived!! In the middle . . . of . . . time-consuming . . . edits.

Hmmm.

Well, like I said, I'm not looking for anything any time soon. *grin* I'm just glad it arrived.

Yup. I'm likely going to save it for next weekend, when I get my life back.
