A Few Things

I haven't done as much writing as I would like lately. I've been working a lot, and also working out. I am going to participate in the Austin Half Marathon as a member of Team LIVESTRONG in honor of a friend who was diagnosed with cancer last year.

If you're so inclined, you can donate to the cause. Any donation is welcomed and appreciated.

I'm not really prepared to run a half marathon. I suspect I will be walking quite a bit of it, but in the end I'm not doing this for athletic/training reasons so that's okay. But I am trying to do enough training so I don't get injured and that, naturally, has cut into my writing time.

Also, Nate and I started rewatching the first season of Lost and talk about a time suck. We intend to watch one episode and then keep watching. As I'm writing this I wonder if that's the wisest use of my time when I'm getting closer to finishing this draft, especially since my workload will only get busier so now is the best time to try to finish.

I'll ponder that but leave you with this:



I have somewhere between 7-10 chapters left to write. I have a list of things I still need to write about but I can see how some might be combined into one chapter. Hard to say for sure, though. Sometimes what I expect is going to be a short section grows and others I expect to be long are handled quickly. But 7-10 is a rough idea.
