Not entirely sure how I managed it, but I have written 5,875 words today (plus the livejournal entries, and several e-mails and chat conversations) I'm impressed. I'm also ahead of
saladmonkeylamb. Go me. (of course, I also want to finish on tuesday, so I can go out and do things on wed. and thurs, and I'm going to drop working on this again for a while when I'm done with this month's 50k, but still...)
And I remembered Judar's phrase-book at the last minute.
“Just a minute!” said Judar, digging out his phrasebook. He flipped through it frantically. There had been something useful that he’s seen earlier, he was sure of it. There was an entire page on speaking to trolls, he found, nearly flipping past it in his hurry. “My brother is bigger and jucier than me,” didn’t seem quite appropriate, and neither did, “We will ring all the church bells in town.” He considered, “I am a poor soul lost in the woods. Please don’t eat me,” but didn’t think it conveyed quite the right message, somehow. At the bottom of the page it said, “I can squeeze blood out of a stone.” Judar held up the book, pointing to that.
