    Inspiration keeps coming in short sharp bursts! Unfortunately they keep appearing on the bus, and I can't get them down on paper straight away. Thankfully, I've managed to remember them all so far :D .

    Just passed 11000 words. BTW, check out el timtor's story :)

    Thanx for the plug, K. C. :)

    It's hard to be inspired when you're playing corporate wage-slave for twelve hours a shift, but the weekend is coming. I should be able to crank out some stuff then.

    Well, at 14682 words or there abouts, the plot is finally showing itself ... sort of. At any rate, Poetic Dude has made an appearance and is currently trying to teach other MC the ocarina. :)

    Wow, see Ara go...

    Since Sunday, I haven't jotted down more than a few disconnected ramblings. :bang:

    Are there any engineering types out there who could tell me if a culture with steam-engine level technology could generate hydrogen for dirigibles? If so, how? :hmm:
    PM me or something...It's a sticking point in my story right now.

    Sorry, el timtor, I'm afraid I have no knowledge on that sort of thing. You can try watching "Sand Pebbles" with Steve McQueen, as that is apparently the training video for engineers in the Royal Navy :D .

    Managed to pass 20k today. Twas a long day of writing :banana:

    We are not meant to be at 20k by the end of the day! We only need 18337 words! :)

    *mocks Deathmage, who is probably about 5000 words behind by now*

    I'm away for the next three days, so I need to get 8k down tonight! It's that or 5k tonight, and 5k when I get back.

    Bah - I'll just keep on writing until I fall asleep on the backspace key ;)
