Entry tags:
Etsy!!! and 4.5k (don't look at me like that...)
Etsy is up! There's even (one item...) there now. More will be added probably around one per day or so for the moment.
Meanwhile, I doubled my wordcount yesterday, and haven't started writing for today (I'm vastly more productive when I either have a deadline (ie, must go do something in half an hour, will write until then) or in the evenings, so I figured I wouldn't kill that time staring at the computer being unproductive today.) I have gone back and looked up my notes and tagged all my entries from the first time I started writing this. It turns out that the current Prince Akbar was formerly Theo-something (probably -dorus)... so, not quite so far east. I might change it back; we're in the standard fantasy less-restrictive medieval sort of a place, so as a friend to the very Anglo/french sort of realm, it's a bit more culturally appropriate. And the name sounds more dignified. (because it's so long and stuffy, I think... an Akbar would do great deeds, while a Theodorus would have read all the books in the library.)
And the interesting thing about Nano is that as you probably don't remember, I mentioned my mother handing me *two* books shortly before it started. And the one I haven't finished yet (The Amulet of Samarkand) was sitting half-forgotten on the cedar chest yesterday when I got an e-mail from the author talking about the writing process. Heh.
At any rate, I have gotten over the initial difficulty of re-starting something I vaguely remember having written before, and Caroline is thoroughly lost in the Wood and in search of adventures. Or perhaps just something to eat.
