because I'm never on the Nano forums, except when I am...

To the dark gods of writing!!!!

( more silliness )

Also... what the heck happened to the rule about doubling the last letter when you add a suffix that starts in a vowel? My spellcheck keeps marking words like "travelled" and "travelling" wrong. (lj's spellcheck only seems to think the latter is wrong, but that makes even less sense. The middle syllable is *still* the same vowel sound.)

Yeah, I'm going to the library now...

35.0k... because I know you *all* want to hear more about this...

Library was helpful. Spent around two hours, wrote around 2k, and stopped in the middle of a sentence at my target word count.

The end of the sentence contains a crucial plot decision that I am still putting off making. Thirty years ago, something horrible happened to Roland Forester. Una tried to take credit for it, but we all know she's delusional, besides being dead, and it could have been the witch who killed him. Perhaps I'll dream up a good solution tonight.

Meanwhile, I find myself in the happy circumstance of being able to go to bed before midnight, which should help tremendously in the getting up tomorrow morning. This morning I only got up when some girl called the house phone to ask me if I wanted credit card processing for my business. If I'd been more prepared, I would have told her that not only was I not at all interested, but that phone line has nothing to do with my business. Oh well.
