In real life, that is.
I'm not going into details. Suffice to say an old circle of friends is falling apart partly because my kid was rude, and partly because a number of other people have decided that this is the worst thing that could ever happen. I don't know how to live with it. It's worse for the nice fellow -- they're his friends.
Totals: Afterwar,74997: The Donor -- added 1000 words to previous version, cut from 4500 words so far in the chapter to 2778. Good cuts, too.
I am such the better writer than I was ten years ago (or more). I used to go longer whenver I started to cut. Now I go shorter, and this is good.
I don't know why I'm doing all these different things at once.
I also planted things and did some cleanup in the yard because I feel guilty about it. And I took the dog to the river, where there was still water but you couldn't see it because the willows had grown so thick. And I threw apples for her in the yard.
No Elizabeth rescue today, but we talked on the phone.
Tomorrow is a Gloria day. (well, it's today now, and I'm off to bed)
