this, that, and the other

Up to 83K words on current draft of book 4. Which is a good thing, as work on it is likely to slow down for the next few days. Tomorrow's my last day of work pre-vacation, and tomorrow night is going to be spent packing and tidying and whatnot. Then Thursday I go down to London (via Birmingham and the quilt show), and Friday-Sunday is the Nine Worlds convention.

... I'm going to need a lot of coffee.

(But it should be fun.)
