...but it's all about waymarkers again today. The novel currently stands at:

Zokutou word meterZokutou word meter
115,169 / 150,000
(76.8%)


- which means I've written 95,588 words of it during the three-month challenge of [livejournal.com profile] novel_in_90 (plus a fair amount of other non-book stuff, but the novel is what counts); but in terms of a pagecount the book has just reached:

Zokutou word meterZokutou word meter
364 / 450
(80.9%)


- which means I've written exactly 300 pages of it during this same three months. Which is satisfyingly neat.

Obviously, 115,169 words doth not a novel make, not in Chazworld; but all is well, for we have declared another round of [livejournal.com profile] novel_in_90, to commence on Sept 1st. Which would be Saturday, I think. And as the official 90-day count of the last round ended yesterday, I am technically entitled to take these two extra days off.

And it's a lovely day, and I could be cleaning house or pottering in the garden or cooking something yummy; and in fact - well, here I am. Writing another page before lunch. Well, there's this dead baby, see, in a city haunted by horror, and I can't just leave it, can I...?

Ooh Chazworld! My favourite theme park.

My brain refuses to do serious this evening.

Ooh Chazworld! My favourite theme park.

Chazworld: where the food is slow and children cost double, where none of the characters are furry, where the only merchandise is books; which is just as well, because all the rides are long and flat and frankly not very interesting, so you might as well read a book.

Is that the Merchandising arm of the Brenchley-Verse?

It's the Merchandising Elbow - slams into your ribs and knocks you into the gift shop, where heavenly music lulls you into a spending spree.
