Back from the pharmaceutical study, which went... pretty decently. I got 1888 words written, which is better than the 1500 I demanded of myself for 3 days, but worse than the 3k+ I was hoping to achieve without much else to do. I hadn't really factored in the fact that I was taking a drug with a sedative effect, or the fact that I would be bleary and tired when they spaced two-hour blood draws all through the night... ugh.
On the plus side, I finished the next chapter of The Hellion Prince. Well, sort of. Pacing problems mean I'm a little iffy on my chapter divisions right now, so I may have finished one chapter, may have finished two chapters, or chapter eighteen may be split in two, with more content added to the second part (which would be finished) but with the former chapter nineteen now chapter twenty unfinished.
Anyway, I got stuff done. And I did a lot of reading.
Pondering a Gay Hamlet story in which Hamlet and Johann Faust study under Martin Luther in Wittenberg. I like the concept and teh cast, but it needs some more meat to it before I go anywhere with it.
My default these days has been "add Cthulhu Mythos," but I think I want to avoid that in this case. Though, Faust... hmmm.
