Yay, it's a novel

I went over 75,000 words today. The novel isn't finished, but it feels like a real book now. Maybe a few more work sessions and the first draft will be done.

It was hard today. I was distracted for hours. Things came slowly, and I rewrote the same four paragraphs three times -- that rarely happens. But I finally latched onto a thread and was able to create a scene that works. Whew.
