So, the last three days I've been exhausted. There've been a lot of family activities and I've been falling asleep mid-work, never making it so far as to update the blog. So sorry about the radio silence. 🙂

Anyway, the total is for all of the days. Tomorrow is a day off from vacation stuff, so I'm going to bed early, sleeping in and hoping to find more energy to make words. On the bright side, I'm closing in on 50,000 words now. In the final phases of writing the first draft. 😀

“Claire! I fucking love you!” There, I said it, but she doesn’t hear. Her door slams, the engine starts, and then she’s gone, leaving me treading water with my words echoing my own head. I mouth them again, needing to taste them again, to make them real. They come out in a soft whisper, “I fucking love you.”
