Well, my decision to take a break yesterday was validated. Today, with a day off work, I made up just about everything I had missed. I am once again more than a day ahead of pace, just as I was more than a day ahead of pace on Saturday.

When I started this process, I had two characters in mind but not a whole lot in the way of plot. I hoped that the plot would suggest itself as time went on, and that seems to be happening, at least so far. I have some general ideas where the story is headed, but it’s not nearly as tightly-plotted as it ought to be.

But that’s not November thinking. That’s December, or even January, thinking.
