nepentheYesterday's Goal: 450
WC: ?? 2 journal pages, so not bad.
I read the teaser booklet for Naomi Novak's next book, "Uprooted." Any book where a peasant girl knocks a prince bloody with a tea tray gets bonus points. What doesn't get any points is that it DOESN'T COME OUT UNTIL 2015. (Oh god, oh god, 2015. Naomi has my email. I have to make what? Did she look at me and think, "Kasia"? I may have cried a little.)
Not great, but decent. I think I've got some of the problems I'd had with this scene worked out. I know I've said that before, but it's true: all the drama is sucking the fun out of it and once the drama is played out, dry blandness is left. Gotta get back on the pony and novel. This will be tricky, as my left hand and my back hurt. A lot.
And research / make photo gallery of traditional Polish dresses. (But only AFTER noveling!)
