I have written 2,497 words! And I have only finished not-quite-three scenes of 10 in the story! I am writing a novella, I think!
But the first scene was the huge one, setting the stage, establishing what's wrong-wrong-wrong about the universe at the moment for the good guys. And it was just rolling on out tonight, which was good.
On the other hand, I don't know that I will ever catch up on my LJ's inbox. >sigh!< One cannot have everything ... .
These are mostly for smillaraaq. Somewhere deep in the guts of the Meta Thread from Heck (f-locked, I am afraid), which started out innocently as a notice of a fic posting on my other account and now exceeds 300 posts, she mentioned that she had not read much (or did not recall much) Cherryh, and as CJC is about my favorite SF writer, I felt this needed to be remedied. And when I said so, she said she'd also appreciate recs for DWJ - who is one of my favorite fantasy authors. So, without further ado ... .
( Cut to lists of recs for both )
