Tin Man: Pirates of the Nonestic

New words: 1576
Total words: 41139
What I hate about my writing: Taking so long to warm up.
The Good: I’m thrilled with how things are coming together.
The Bad: Am I going to bore the readers with all the ship stuff? It’s sort of the only mode of transportation for the majority of the work.
Fave Cain line: “There’s going to be trouble?”
Fave DG line: “That’s all you need me for? To act as a magic battery?”
Fave Jenkins line: “They’re pirates, man. You’d be daft not to expect trouble. And I had to tell them you’re a magic user the Captain needs to find the route.” He gestured toward DG. “And if you can’t turn them into toads, don’t let them know. I had to tell them something to make ‘em keep their hands off. Otherwise, they’ll assign you the one job they think a woman should have.”
Fave Betsy line:“Look, there’s no reason for us to be at odds. I realize that I’ve forced you to help me, but I don’t want it to be an unpleasant experience.”
Fave Sprite line: “Kingsport tomorrow. The waters sing it.”
What I'm looking forward to: Finishing up the handwritten smut so I can get to the fun piraty stuff in Kingsport.
What I'm not looking forward to: Washing dishes. Of course, I didn’t get that finished this weekend.
