Nose to the Grindstone

1672 words so far today, for a book total of 67,430.

This is the second book in the new group, and right now we have Arian out in the forest west of Chaya with some old ranger friends. She’s bringing them up to date on Stuff, and they’re suggesting that she’s the right person to do an unpleasant errand for them. She’s not so sure.

Meanwhile, Dorrin has returned from the second coronation in book one, and still processing what happened there. I need to open up the strands copied over from the first book, when I chopped it off at Midsummer, and figure out what Dorrin did between then and the Autumn Evener, and from then to now (“now” being a day or so beyond the end of the first volume as originally written. Is that sufficiently unclear now?)

Going for a short walk and to feed horses, then I’ll finish up the goal for today, 2000. What’s odd is that I wrote most of the 1600 while waiting for the telephone repair people to call me back.
