Absolutely Not Your Monkey

Oh, my head hurts. I spent all day writing again, and I think I’ve finished the first, very rough draft of my book! It’s almost 65,000 words long in its present form, or about 220 pages in a paperback. Needless to say, it need a huge amount of editing as well as the addition of background and explanations, but it feels good just to have reached this stage, in any case. All in all I wrote over 10,000 words this weekend, which is certainly something. Now I just need to make what I’ve written at least make sense and be interesting.

I am also definitely not looking forward to going to work tomorrow and staring at a computer screen all day. Except for when I went out for lunch and dinner, I’ve spent all day today in my room typing and typing while I stared at this damn monitor. Well, enough is enough! I’m going to bed.

I’ll leave you with a picture I took of a sign near Jake’s Urban Den or whatever it’s called (at which, I regret to report, I will no longer be dining. The food just isn’t that good any more) :

Polar Guy. Just what is that steaming hunk of meat he’s holding?
