Stellar Gift of Death 2011 Revision

Progress Bar from Writertopia

METRICS
New Words: 361
Chapter Nineteen total words: 3858
Chapter Twenty-One total words: 3233
Total words for the new draft: 101,392
What I hate: My sore body right now.
The Good: Wow, I managed to get that many words done despite the marathon letter folding session during the paying job.
The Bad: Going to friends' this weekend, so I'm dropping writing for alien language creation.
Fave line: "And here I was thinking that you kissed all the females who worked for the organization."
Details I'll probably need again when editing: Bruise and How do you get a blood clot in your eye to dissolve?,
What I'm looking forward to: Filling in the six journal entries I need, finding all the places where I skipped book quote sidebars, creating alien languages so I can name characters, the end of first draft.
What I'm not looking forward to: Finding all the places I skipped book quote sidebars. Why didn't I make notes of where I skipped? Taking the aliens species I have described and giving them believable biology, languages, and cultures.
