Day 22 - 8 days remaining

Tomorrow may be hell, but today was a good writing day,
and on the good writing days nothing else matters.

- Neil Gaiman



Today's word count is 36,667. Did everyone have a chance to catch up over the weekend?

For most of us in the states, we'll be celebrating Thanksgiving this Thursday and many schools schedule time off so students can go home for the holidays! More time for writing, right? Right? Hello? Uh, where did everybody go?

Excerpts, questions, comments? Remember everything's good! Keep writing!

not as good a day as i had hoped ... activism getting in the way. why couldn't the TSA have waited until after NaNoWriMo to start groping and irradiating passengers? oh well. i still made it to 54,889

"Who would you say is in power?"

"Juno, Arachne, Aphrodite, Helen ... Athena I suppose. Oh, and D ..."

"Let's leave D and the anomaly out of it for now. And Juno's real name is Hera. So it's Hera, Arachne, Aphrodite, and Helen. What about Golden Apple and M&M?"

"True, so let's add Athena and perhaps Eleus to the list. And in engineering there's Daedalus, Ariadne ... you of course."

"I report to Persephone. Xochiquetzal and Orihime report to Daedalus. None of us have any real power."

"But Xochi and Orihime are both founders!"

"Yes. Are you starting to see what I'm getting at?"

I thought about it and finally it dawned on me. "Everybody in power is Greek."

"Yes. And nobody from any other traditions has power -- except the anomaly."

"And D."

"Yes, of course. The anomaly and D are exceptions."

The TSA policy is unfortunate all around :-( But it looks like you're making some progress and that your MC is getting closer to unraveling some of the mystery! Hope that tomorrow is a better writing day! Good luck!
