Words today: 759
Words total: 31523
Reason for stopping: running out of steam
Sustenance: the crispy flesh of chickens, and tea and oranges (all the way from China)
Mammalian assistance: a snoring boy
Tyop: goosepumps
Darling: the whole scene, (gratuitous not-a-lesbian-shower-scene FTW!) but no particular line
Mean things: Terrible Revelations, helplessness, mistreated tattoos, embarrassment
Quirks: I remember now why I hate characters who don't know what's going on. There's always at least one scene where they sit around saying "so what do we do now?", and nobody can come up with an answer. And then they all stare at me, like I'm supposed to know this shit. :P

Earlier this week I came to the conclusion that I really didn't need one of these povs, so I cut 3000 words. I've now caught up to (and I think surpassed) the pre-cutting wordcount. This may be an unsaleable monstrosity (with pretty illustrations), but it's also the only novel I have at 30k, so it's probably stupid to stop working on it.

Now I just have to figure out what happens next.
