I got away to the Oregon coast this week to work on Furious for four days. I missed November because of that belly ache. In December I only got 45 pages in. January I was up to 70, but never managed a 20 page day.
Monday of this week I put in 21, as I did on Tues. and Wed. Thursday I was feeling kind of wrung out. I also had the problem that Kris needed "to storm the castle" and there were so many thing to do and things to go wrong.
I didn't start writing until 12:30. At 4:30 when my tummy started complaining, I looked up and I'd written 22 pages! After supper I came back and figured I'd write 2 more pages. I did 9 in the next hour and a half! 31 for the day, 96 for the week!
Wow. This is fun writing. I'm sure it will be fun reading. By the way, I've brought all of you into the book. Agent Leslie Chu of the Wardhaven Bureau of Investigations is a member of the Kris Longknife Fan club, and boy is she delighted with her latest assignment!
