Woo hoo!

Broke page 305 on Mapgie - yeah! That makes for roughly 76,250 words. I have two skipped scenes to fill in and then I'll be up to The Battle. I hate battle scenes and am not looking forward to writing this one. Miquela sent me a couple of crits by e-mail, which was sweet of her, and I'm pleased that people seem to be getting the ambiguity of some of my character's decisions. Few of them are truly 'evil,' I'm trying to create the complexity of decisions that real life often brings.

In other news...
This weekend's performances went well, IMO. We had two really good houses Thurs. and Fri. and decent houses on Sat. and Sun. Around the show I managed to fit drinks on Friday night with T., laying out in the sun Sat. afternoon and getting seriously burnt while finishing Hidden Warrior (but also completing some more brainstorming for my Venetian idea), and dinner with friends after church on Sunday. We went to this great restaurant on Dartmouth called Geoffery's and ate outside. Goat cheese and chicken salald, yum!

I'm still full :) Therefore, I plan on hitting the gym on my lunch break. I'm also supposed to go out to dinner tonight, so I really need it! And I'd better stop procrastinating and do some work...
