Last week did not go as planned, and produced only a little over 3000 words of progress, but today I’ve done my 2000 (2084, to be precise) and the total on the second book  is now at 76,184.

I’m working on some fairly gnarly bits.  Dorrin is still dealing with her family’s legacy of evil and their connection with Liart, the Lord of Torments (also called the Bloodlord.)    Some people don’t trust her.

Not saying whose, right now, but there’s a set of royal regalia with its own personality and its own ambitions.   “Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown” is true, especially if it talks to you even when you aren’t wearing it.

I need to get the last tangles in the broadband connection worked out, so I’m not being distracted by that (or by A, B, C….X,  the other elements in my life that drag me away from the writing.)
