Guess what? Another NaNo update
Aug. 15th, 2012 02:41 pmOkay, time for another camp nano update again. I'm still writing and the current word count stand at 23434 (plus what's in the notebook to be typed so so it's probably more like 24000)
So the story is ticking on fine and is on track to hit the 50k by the end of the month. A few of the characters are turning out rather differently than I'd planned - and Cade seem to be turning into Mycroft Holmes (the Gattis one), my uncomplicated outlaw is now a political revolutionary in hiding who also had an orphaned neice, and the most important generals, Medon, (there are a three that appear in the story Torgan, Medon and Messillian) has gained a wife, and the backstory that he was born biologically female, but has lived his life as male - although this plays very little part in his characterisation - the main things are that he's a brilliant tactitian, a political reformist and loves his wife.
( And now for the latest bit - about 400 words - of what I've written )
