I finished the first draft of the short story I’ve been working on–I like it, I’m happy with how it came out. Tomorrow I’ll give it another read-through and then hand it over to my co-conspirator. I’ve left him a whole thousand words to play with. 🙂 Of course he will cut plenty of my words too. But that’s what makes it fun.
I put some plants outside today, ones that overwinter indoors and live on the deck when it’s not freezing. Not ten minutes later, it started hailing. Of course! But it was still nearly 60 degrees out there, so I left them. Go figure.
And (after today’s iteration of the neverending rounds of chores and errands) I went to H’s house for dinner, after which we folded laundry and watched “Hugo”. All in all, a nice day. Tomorrow I hope to delve into Nightcraft drafting–it needs three new chapters at the beginning, which are already writing themselves in my head, but that does nobody any good till I write them down, right?
