181,000 words, and still a long way to go. That may not sound like much to those who have written long books, but it's humongous by my standards. I wonder how long it will be when it's done. I wonder when it will be done. I'm trying not to wonder whether it will be done.

Now that I'm an old far-- guy, I write much more slowly than when I was young and the words poured out of me. However, the words that creep out of me so slowly now are better chosen, and the result needs far less rewriting to be good.
Or possibly I'm deluding myself about that.
Writer, former software developer, tech writer, aerospace engineer (Apollo, Viking Mars lander). Atheist and anti-theist; I try not to go on too much about that and frequetnly fail. Mostly fairly leftwing except on certain subjects; ditto about going on too much about it. Come to think of it, that bit about going on too much about stuff applies to all of the above.
