Crossed over 70,000 words on Entangled today…I’m at the point in the outline where Everything Happens. I’ve been trying for the last like seven or eight chapters to get everyone on stage together so that Everything can, you know, Happen. Bunch of ornery characters I have here!
Anyway…they’re close. I won’t say I can see the end from here, not even sort of. But I can see the next bit. Which is probably 10,000 more words of dithering, then 15,000 words of Action! Climax!, and then…yeah, probably more words to close it all out.
Sigh.
That’s okay, doctodd will trim it back down to a normal length. But this all might mean I won’t make my hoped-for deadline of finishing this monster before the end of the month.
Or I might just pull it out! Who knows? I’m only the writer, heck, I haven’t a clue.

In other news, it’s sweltering here. Which is wonderful. But weird.
