Men succumb to greed as surely as they succumb to death, but they love their vengeance even more than their greed. Wave upon wave flooded the mountains seeking scale and spade and horn. Retribution coursed through their veins in the place of blood. Nary a breath left their lungs without tongues and lips lacing it with obscene curses. It mattered not that they sought revenge against those who had merely retaliated first.

Thomas, the elder Mage is telling the history of Gnorepenne, the location of the Guild of the Silver Dagger, and what finally leads to its destruction.
Todd, Is it life getting in the way, or lack of drive? Honestly, I don't feel the drive that I felt doing NaNoWriMo, and the "put other things aside and write." In saying that, I have to admit that I DO have more going on right now than I did in Nov, so maybe that's it. It's frustrating, I have to admit. Last night I got around 600 words, which felt pretty good.
It may be slow but I'm catching up - kind of! Today I got 2477 written :-)

ReplyDeleteAt least I'm reporting it. Shame on all you people who aren't reporting daily!
