It’s formatted, it’s all in one file, it’s fiddled with and edited and fixed, and it is–hold on to your hats–it is 913 pages. Really. 246,635 words. Oh my God.

I put little quotes in at the beginning of each chapter, to help keep the reader advised of POV switches. Just stuff from the chapter, like, at the beginning of one of hers, “There’s no damn point in knife practice with a dull knife.” And for him, one of the best was, “She’s always in heat.”

I really have to go to bed. But I have a question–thirty-eight visitors from my last visit this morning. Is it “sick puppy” in the title of the last blog that pulled so many searchers in, or was it just a slow day for all the other blogs?
