Roughly 260 pages on Magpie. How did that happen? :)

Wrote one scene out of order, so I'll now have to fill in the two scenes I skipped. And I'm a little concerned that I'm over-explaining because information was already revealed in earlier scenes, so there are things I can cut out, and maybe even scenes that aren't necessary. The Emperor is shaping up as a stronger character, though, which pleases me. This is definitely proving to be a more complicated novel than any I've written before. *stretches mental muscles*

Taught my last class at gym that is closing *sniff* Said good-bye to my regulars and thanked them for being so faithful for a year - longer than most of my relationships! :P I'm tired, though, we ran Act I twice last night with all the dancing, and my poor body is not thanking me today. Ah, well. Two weeks until opening night! Wow, where did the summer go? :)
