Taxonomy upgrade extras:
I've written about 9000 words in what was supposed to be a 5000-word 'final chapter', Obviously I've miscalculated seriously. :)
Anyway, I broke the story at what I think is a good point, so I can post SOMEthing, at least.
I'm thinking now I *might* be able to wrap it up in 15,000 words, so that leaves two more chapters before I can wind the the story up properly. Fortunately, it's moving along fairly well, and though I don't write quickly, the time I do spend has felt productive so far.
I must admit I have astonished myself that I have been able to write so much; the complete story will amount to a moderate-sized novel! Me! A novelist! In quantity, at least.
Mega-kudos to Lilith, for all of her wonderful stories and the inspiration they've provided.
And Super-mega-kudos to Erin and this entire community for being so welcoming and allowing me to discover an interest in writing.
