New Year’s Eve and mental deterioration …

Yes, I finished “Beg to Differ”. It came in at just under 12,000 words, meaning I wrote nearly 3,000 today, and turned out the entire story between Christmas and New Year’s. I’ll probably want to play with it for a few more days, but that’ll just be refining and maybe a little extending; probably 95% of the finished product will be exactly what I have now.

I am so brain-fried I can’t even think straight. Not because I stayed up late writing (I finished my draft of the story before 9:00PM) but because I had to stay up late for other things. And now I can’t make myself exercise some sense and just go to bed.

bellatemple replied to my prior post and graciously agreed to give the story a lookover preparatory to its posting. (I had indicated that I intended to ask.) I still hope to enlist liz_marcs as well.

The calendar is set to turn. It will be another year.

Zowie.
