get behind the mule

Chapter 17: 10,218 words

Summerdown, thus far: 147,926 words

What remains is dénouement and the part where I end this entire four book monstrosity. And then I get to go back and fix everything that's currently broken and put in actual words everywhere I've got [blank].

It may be a Frankenstein's monster of a draft, but a draft I will have by August first.

You may, as [livejournal.com profile] jaylake says, continue shopping. No need to return to your homes.

Woo! I'd been wondering how you were doing.

And I eagerly await finding out why this icon is for _Summerdown_.

yea you!

I'll push if you keep pulling ;)

On a weirdly related note, I just recently learned that a female mule is called a molly, and that unlike male mules (johns) they're often fertile but almost impossible to get pregnant. So now I want an OED to see if that's where the term came from...

Jaylake.... Stories.... :O
