I got about 1000 words out today. Proud of that. These are even words I'm proud of. They're not perfect but they are a good framework. New excerpt out. Go read about Gorgax some more.
This is really what my novel is about. Nobody is the villain of their own story. It starts out as a typical save mankind type of story but its really more about the people who surround that quest. Gorgax doesn't believe what he is doing is wrong. Neither does Auralia. Who of them is 'right'? There's also a fourth character who I'm working on introducing later in that encounter right there. He's a troll. Each of these four characters is doing what is right in their own minds and so the point of my story is really that ambiguity as the reader tries to decide who he/she thinks is right.
Word count: 13,016
I do worry about tomorrow because I'm heading towards more ill defined territory but I'm hoping I can just fight through that. We'll see.
