Writing, hay, and more writing

Slow but steady progress. The loose ends are now visible rather than being just in my head. Had to make a timeline, using the Chatton calendar. Dates like 18 Bear 347 CY and 29 II Wolf 348 CY don't help, but I insist that they be correct.

Unloaded the last of the hay this afternoon. Some of it was pretty crappy, but it's more than enough so we're done until June I hope.

Moved a frozen turkey from the deep freeze to the refrigerator so it will hopefully thaw out by Wednesday evening when I want to cook it. They're predicting snow for Wednesday evening too. Glad we're closing the library early for the holiday.

Got two more segments written. At this rate, I'll still make the deadline.

NaNo progress

I made a timeline for my story too, during the planning stages. The plot is fairly linear but involves several characters who aren't always in the same place at the same time, so I find it helpful.

I'm behind on my target and won't make it to 50k unless I'm extraordinarily un-lazy, but I'll be at 30k soon and have the second section of the book completed. Woopwoop!

You can still make the 50K then. I'm only at 25K and think I still have a good chance. I only need 3200 words a day, you need less than that.
