So Here We Are, On Another Battlefield

Are we on the same side or are we opponents? I can never tell.

I hit 5,000 words yesterday afternoon, and I just finished word number 8,238 a few minutes ago. It feels good to be writing so much. And I have some good parts coming up, a scene that is 4 ish years in the making, so I'm excited to write it. I'll be off to get some food first, then maybe get another thousand words in tonight? That would be awesome.

I might also call it a night and read for Shakespeare or play Phoenix Wright 3 instead. But we'll leave that until after my late dinner (:

I like when random bits from past writing jump into my head. It proves that there is something substantial to them, something lasting. Yay!

So, here's a belated character introduction: Kaya Candra. She's about 19 Earth years old, approximately five feet, five or six inches tall, about one hundred and thirty to forty pounds. S She's a slave at Arogra Fimal's fortress. She has auburn ish hair - think of it as the color of the crust of a freshly baked loaf of bread. Her eyes... Well, I haven't decided that yet. They might be a stormy gray blue. That seems to be what is jumping out.

Her best friend is Aedan Volos, a fifteen year old male who is already taller and bigger than her. I think he's about five feet, sixish inches tall, that seems to be about right. Not too much taller, but taller, and likes to tease Kaya about it. He's maybe, one hundred and fifty pounds, pretty skinny but he has muscles on his arms from manual labor.

I can do their personalities later. This is just me talking it all out, anyway.

And Kaya likes to argue with me that her name should be Tremmy. See, that was her original name, all those years ago when I started writing, but she's changed, the story's changed, and her name has changed. She might win out in the end, with it becoming a nickname or some special name or something. Who knows. This lass is stubborn.

I should do something productive now. Like eat. I'll be back eventually though, I promise ;)

Love and Peace
