It turned out to be a cat exploded kind of writing day. I didn’t quite write two full chapters (more like 1.75), but I got 4200 words done, hit page 250, and am stopping in the middle of a fight/chase scene that’ll be easy to pick up tomorrow. Page 250 is something of a landmark page. Even on longer books, it’s kind of the sign that there might be an end to this damned thing somewhere, but on the Bombshells, which are 360 pages max, it means you’d better have…

I have plenty of things to talk about, but I need to work on PHOENIX, so no talking right now!
productivity? what productivity?
has *completely* ruined my productivity by introducing me to LibraryThing. I managed to rein myself in after adding only about a hundred books, and the perfectionist in me is not at all happy with half of them, because they’ve got things like bad capitalization (Storm Front, for example, is in as Storm front) and a bunch of them are paperback editions where I have hardback, and I can’t remember what cover I’ve got for a lot of the older stuff, and I can’t make it give me the right cover…
