Second Last NaNo update (2009)

I'm sort of wondering if I can drag this last scene out just to hit a word count. It doesn't need to be longer, but well, I'm 900 words short of a round number. I love round numbers.

It looks and feels like England outside, but where this would normally make me happy (I would think), it is instead making me very grumpy because even if it looks like it, it isn't it.

How many more 'its' could I have gotten in that sentence, do you think?

I should go do something productive. Not that writing isn't, but I should walk away and come back to it later instead of staring at the page.

You know, I think I should go back and re-read Stone of Tears, except then I might burn it.

Edit: I skimmed it. I am entirely non-commital on the parts that have obviously been cut out and the stuff that was added. I say this because, in practice, you cannot break up your Major Love Story in the middle of a season and keep them apart for more than a few episodes before your fan base (who haven't read the books) declare mutany. So, things had to change. I get that. However, I do love the little things they put in as asides that are not explained but make sense if you have read the books. Like Kahlan's new outfit.

The only thing that I am really missing is the Mud People because really. That was mid-book ONE. And they are around Kahlan ALL THROUGH STONE OF TEARS.

But besides that, I'm fine.

I may, inavertantly and against my will, be writing Peter/Olivia fic in my head.

P.S. This will be my last Fringe related post until Thursday. You're all thrilled, I can tell.

Happy Robert Burns Night, my dear f-list, whether you be Scottish or not!
