According to the spreadsheet of doom, it’s been nineteen days since I last wrote. I promptly threw out my last scene, too, so the word count is less. (61,687.) Did I mention that we were doing an email migration?
I think I know what I’m going to do for the next scene, but I really need to write. I need to finish this chapter by the 14th so my crit group will have something to crit on the 15th!
The last scene was really heavy-handed. It had a couple of good lines, but I saved the whole scene in my cut file so I could steal my own good lines if I need to. Yes, the cut file is in version control. I’m such a dork.
It’s been nearly as long for me as well. I’d suggest trading my email review system that *doesn’t work* (in new ways every day) for your migration, if it weren’t for the fact that, um, your hell really is *worse*.

Marlys,
Woe. I’m not sure whether to be glad (happy for you) or sorry that my hell is worse than yours. Perhaps instead we should declare a moratorium on technohells!
