Holy Wordcount, Batman!

I've been writing like a madwoman this weekend. I just decided I need to stop and do a couple of other things before bedtime, and took a wordcount. Holy crap. I'm not sure I believe it myself; 12,136 words. No that's not a typo. Aliyah really is 12k longer tonight that it was Saturday morning. My fingers ache. :-)

It's all raw first draft, but I'm nearly up to the endgame now. One more chapter in which everybody who's coming to help runs into each other at Joe's hogan, before Joe and his old teammates get there, then I'm on to the final couple of chapters where they corner the dybbuk.

You realize I hate you, right? :p

Man, I wish I could write that fast! Great job - looking forward to seeing it all!

I probably shouldn't mention that I also did a 2K prompt fic on the Torquere LJ on Sunday night after this?

I posted this and then turned to Beth and said "Val is going to hate me for this." Nice to know my crystal ball works properly. Of course I haven't had time to right anything since, so it kind of averages out.

LOL! Wanna loan me that crystal ball? Or how about just some of the wordcount? :D
