Word Count: 8800.
Aug. 27th, 2011 01:36 pmWrestling with the end of the climax and the denouement. My deepest apologies to my faithful betas, but ETA is now 7-8 PM. Life is also throwing scheduling obstacles in my way. As noted before, I'm still happy to give you a full day for a thorough sweep - it just means I won't likely have time to send it out to you for a second review.
I have to admit, there's a big part of me that still cannot believe that I have actually managed this wordcount in this timeframe. That little critical voice all artists of any stripe have thought that it would take me years to achieve this sort of output, if ever. That voice has received a body blow. I would never have attempted this now if not for receiving this challenge. I'm strongly considering shifting my daily quota upward again when all this is done.
I am also, very definitely, still willing to offer commissioned fiction of any length up to 10k at a rate of 5 cents per word. If there are any interested takers feeling charitable, who want anything from drabble-length on up, let me know. I'll have it done within a day + 1 day per thousand words. And if my current story is a representative sample, then i firmly believe any customers/patrons/donors will get their money's worth.
