24.5k/39.0 and this is getting long again
Nov. 19th, 2006 07:53 pmChapter 13 has metamorphosed from 2.4k to 3.5, and I had to go back and change the title because I didn't get to the gaming hell after all. Which I can't remember if I did last time too, or not... it's not in my notes if I did, but it's not a bad stopping place; the original chapter break was either here or on the steamer to India.
In any case, at least another 500 words, preferably another thousand, should still happen tonight, and I am on to Duban, who is entirely self-contained, except for the final (chronologically-- Argent still meets him in the Inferno in a later chapter) appearance of Charon. Only... I can't quite remember where it is that Duban gets his wisdom from. Because it's his little brothers who go to see the Norns and the mouse-Pythia at Delphi.
Right. More tea, & stuff. (if good coffee=code and bad coffee=poetry (more or less), then warm tea=productivity, and cold tea=daydreaming. Although sometimes it's cranberry juice instead of tea, and then the temperature goes the other way around.)
