For some reason, I am unable to sleep.
I think it's daylight savings time messing everything up. The extra hour is nice, but apparently it's a little too jarring for my body to adapt to.
Argent is progressing smoothly, perhaps a little more so than I thought it would. I'm still nervous about getting it all done by the end of November, coupled with the fact that people have begun asking me for due dates on letters of recommendation and I'm not exactly sure what to tell them as I haven't yet picked out schools (but we'll see).
The goal initially was to do a chapter a day, and while I haven't quite held to that (it's more like a chapter every two days over here) it's been okay. I haven't created anything utterly ridiculous and it's looking like I'll come out with a pretty decent first draft. Then, revisions are planned for finals week, where I only have one final, so I should be able to come out with something pretty nice by the time I need to go home and get the final product together.
I'm still pretty excited about it. I'm using a lot of body language in this one, which was something I didn't notice before in my writing. Maybe it's just how I see the characters, or maybe I'm letting myself get carried away with all of this and should just rely more on dialogue. We'll see how it plays and if it continues I'll start to tweak it.
In the mean time, buggy. What a week.
