Nice 1000 word clip today. Parts will need dusting in the morning. Today was mostly action based, which I find makes for an easier cleanup, since the parapgraphs are less dense than standard narrative. Dialog exchanges are also brief here, as this is hardly the time for monologues.

My mind keeps wandering ahead to the last scene, even though there’s two scenes preceding it. I’m considering a bottle of Tanqueray gin ( no carbs, thanks ) for toasting purposes on Sunday. Who knows when I’ll get another chance to celebrate the book.

This is a hell of a weekend for the last mile, too. The leaves are peaking, turning deep, brilliant colors of red and orange.
