Look! That number is *bigger* than the previous one! This is a new and exciting thing for me. Though I don't trust it to continue this trend consistently over the next weeks.
Ideally I'd like to have this draft finished by the 23rd. We'll see how that goes. I really need to get through this book on Khomeinist Iran (which so far has been very interesting, and included a history of Iran *and* a history of Islam) so I can build the world on station better. So I'm going to spend the rest of the afternoon on that, rather than on trying to squeeze out more words.
Because once I do that, I can go back and work on the Azar or Sahar POV sections and get more words there.
(I'd really like to take a nap, but I'll be good. If I had a lounge chair, I'd take it out to the deck and read there, since it's ridiculously nice out.)
