Happy VD 2008

Spain the Cat would like to share a little love with the internets upon this special occasion; but since she has easier access to my forehead than she does to the internets, she’ll settle for giving me a holiday smooch.
And now today’s stats for the noir fable with warring factions, score-keeping ghosts, supernatural animal testing on an industrial scale, survivors with grudges, a mysterious ex-clergyman who lies exquisitely, and a vampire who wakes up cranky from his 100-year nap:
Project: Awake Into Darkness
New Year’s Resolution Status: Safe
New Words Written Since Yesterday: 4052
Present Total Word Count: 20,741 words
Goal: 100,000 words by July 1.
Things Accomplished in Fiction: Talked to a ghost at length; busted into an abandoned library; awakened sleeping vampire in accordance with his wishes.
Things Accomplished in Real Life: More combing of Fathom line edits (which ate up most of the workday, yet I still got a healthy word count in, woo!); answered a stack of emails; dodged closet repair dude; caught up on internet goings-on (a bit).
Reason for Stopping: I want to take a shower/wash hair/change clothes/etc. in case we go out for Valentine’s Day. I don’t think we’re going to go do anything too crazy-exciting, but we might hit the town, you never know.
Total Fiction Words Composed in 2008: 81,503
