Writing: 1,602 words today. Finished the chapter but not happy with the final scene. It feels a bit off to me. A bit out of focus--all the ingredients are there, but I need to play with it, to bring it into sharper focus.

I'll be away from LJ for most of the rest of the week, as I'm heading out of town for Thanksgiving. In honor of the holiday, I'll share with you my family's favorite Thanksgiving saying: "Did you get the right turkey in the oven?"

Yes. Sigh. We are easily amused, and this joke is at least thirty years old, and somehow we still find it funny. Perhaps because of the abundance of turkeys that any large family gathering attracts, and the secret thought that things would run a lot smoother if NAME's place at the table was taken by a quiet and unassuming Butterball.
