Only a few new words today — barely a few sentences, nothing snippet-worthy. I'm working myself up to the big finale, and it's very hard to find the correct way to there.

We had hail come down half an hour ago. Is this the end times or what??

Other than that....
I've been putting in some time on my story in the mornings, not a lot of readable writing yet, but notes, snippets of dialogue and sentences I might want to use and some minor location research. It actually feels like I'm doing something :)

I've finished out my essay and posted it. Now I'm just waiting for the IT guys to put a picture on it. :)

Wrote 1k today! Writing some Harry/Draco for old time's sake. It's fun! I may finish this one tomorrow if all goes well.

Oops — nearly forgot to check in!

Words written — approx. 500. Words deleted because I think it needs a different POV — approx. 500 :(

But I did beta half of the epilogue of the 39 chapter story I have been beta-ing over the past months. I am afraid it has probably taken me at least as long as it took ellynn_ithilwen to write and translate into English. And I finished the beta this morning (day 9).

I went for a fairly enormous walk, and then in the evening I was busy fixing my knitting, which had gone All Wrong (twice), and watching a programme about John Buchan. So not a very writing kind of day. Eventually I wrote a few scribbly kind of bits about a statue put up to commemorate the first written rules of golf. 104 words.

The rules were written for a competition held on Leith Links in 1744 and won by the surgeon John Rattray, who thereby became 'Captain of the Goff'.
