84,000
and i'm feeling a better sense of direction than I was last time around. Ultimately, the direction with the book is to tell the story of my life - i must remember that - and the storylines are only nice ways of gluing things together. gluing? glueing?
It's very tempting to just say sod it and make it into a diary format, but that would completely be destroying the object of a novel format, and I've done so much great work on the novel format that it would be silly to lose it. I still have the excitement for this project, and I'm really glad that I set my target to finish as the end of 2013, because it means I can work on the book without panicking about the time scale or the amount of time I may need to edit it after all the words are written.
