    Bwahahaha!! 3735!

    It's amazing how much word counts Katana Fights take up. I've already had two.

    I think I might end up with one katana fight per day.

    Meh.

    I also think that before November ends I will end up drinking coffee.

    Double meh.

    5126 words as of now and still the plot is not in sight! Nor is Poetic Dude for that matter, which may just be a good thing, except it also means that the plot isn't either :(

    And I plan on changing from 3rd to 1st person soon, which will no doubt be crap - but I can't deal with the crapness of my 3rd person MC. :)

    :banana:

    Gah, my inspiration died today too - still ahead in word count though at 10166 words. Methinks maybe I'll go to sleep earlyish and hope to awake inspired and write madly all through the weekend.

    Of course, it probably won't happen like that *sigh*
    I sense the Week of Fatigue coming on fast...
