I had an interesting morning with Brand and Deuce respectively. I was tempted to back-read both scenes but I think I'll wait until tonight and let the internal editor have the first look.

I was tempted to write past quota this morning but I have other work waiting, so I stopped at just over 2K. Things are moving along again well, and I'll bump up my wordcounts for the rest of the week so I don't fall short of 50K.

I started off the first writing session after my mini-vacation by deleting my beginning of Chapter Eight (about 488 words) and rewriting it. I just didn't care for how I'd opened the scene, and wanted to run through it again from scratch. I still didn't like it after the second attempt but that happens and I'll mark it for another rewrite once I've finished the book.

I got my words done in three short sessions while juggling other tasks. Kim and Glory surprised me with an unexpected heart-to-heart that bloomed out of nowhere at the end of Chapter Seven, and I got a little of Chapter Eight going before I quit for the day.

I had fun with the writing today, and I think it came through on the page. I was tempted to try for double my quota but I don't want to push the voice too hard just yet. I'll also need it tonight for the daily edits.
