Here is the post to update with any extracts, thoughts, or comments you might have for today.

Keep the fires burning!

(Considering the temperatures we're currently having over here, I expect spontaneous self-combusting on my part. *sighs*)

Comments

Like last month, the first was a zero-words day due to work for my brother. Unlike last month the second was a work day, not a write-in day, so I didn't get started then either. However, I sat down for an hour or so this evening and knocked out 400 words or so.


Only a small snippet. Lucy and Catherine are "doing homework" with "Songs of Glory and Victory" playing...

"Yeah, I know," Catherine began. "But-"
Lucy shushed her as the music faded out. They sat in silence for a few moments but no new song of glory took its place. "Oh, that must be the end of the album!" Lucy said cheerfully. "Shall we listen again?"
Catherine grimaced at the thought. "Oh yes, let's!" She tried not to sound sarcastic but wasn't sure she'd managed it.
Lucy grimaced too as she hit play and the rousing opening anthem began.

Heh. I take it they're being watched?

Not watched, as such (they're in Lucy's bedroom), but probably listened in on.

Is this both a cover for their conversation and a "message" for whoever might be listening?

[six-old-cars.livejournal.com]

Pretty much. The album is very patriotic, a gift from the Commodore to all his youth club members.

I don't like the idea of that album one bit.

Good scene - Catherine and Lucy seem to be adapting well to how to survive in their situation.

Ha! Big Brother will be popping up with some message next?

The music hides their conversation? What awful stuff to have to put on repeat though!

Hiding the conversation with "Songs of Glory and Victory" - clever girls. Good scene!
Good luck with the writing!
