Well, pounded out 3.5K words last night to finish the rough draft of The Dragon's Intended. Currently the ending is sort of lame (as always on a rough draft) and there are a lot of notes inserted in the text to fix something on the next run-through, but the rough draft is done. Which makes 10 SS RDs this year.
Yes, I know I said I was going to be cleanning up Masks of War, but it wasn't flowing.
So, this is the third story in my "Dragon's Child" series, and there are at least 2 more in my head. I'm going to have to work hard to make them stand alone stories. The first's off to an antho right now...so I'm just waiting. The second and thrid are now in RD form. I've worked some on four and five, four being an aside where we have a ghost plaguing them--not dragons, for a change--and five being the last in the series, where Jia-li and the dragon finally do marry....OK, it's complicated, moreso by the original premise of the first story.
All in all, I'm pleased that it came out so quickly, and now I'd better get to work massaging these last 3 stories into shape so I can get them out....somewhere....
9K, 11K, and 8K right now....that's 28K just on this one family. ;o)
