Writing: Well, I only got 793 yesterday. I suck. :( On the other hand, I'm almost up to January's wordcount already, and I'm up to Chapter 21 in the outline. I'm a little afraid that this book is going to be too long, but we'll see. Some of these chapters may be able to be combined when I actually write them.
For me, that's the big advantage of a chapter by chapter outline - if I finish the scene and the chapter's short, I know what's coming next, and can just adjust my chapter outline accordingly. It's a map, not a straitjacket. But that's just me.
Knee: Brace is amazing - it's just a bitch to put on. Mom and Dad are going to bring a velcro one for me today and I'll most likely return this one, because I'm afraid it's just that bit too small and I don't want to be cutting off circulation or anything. But it lets me move and stand, which is remarkably freeing. I'm back downstairs today, and I'm actually going to clean my living room and dining room if I can. Dr's appointment Tuesday, and hopefully he'll say "Stay on crutches for 2 weeks and then you'll be fine." Keep your fingers crossed.
And if you haven't already, check out the Contest I started yesterday! It's up on DA, DII and anywhere else I could think of, so spread it around!
Okay, off to start doing stuff.
