18.5k now, thanks to a day off and www.writeordie.org! You're perfectly right. What I write now will just be a very rough first draft that will require a lot of editing.But I'd LOVE to get the bare bones of the story completely finished, so I can second draft it after November. I'm trying to be more disciplined. :D though It's tough when I keep thinking up daft things for my people to do.
