Tomorrow I'll aim for 2000.

It's a matter of getting up to speed. It's coming.

And done. Well, doneish. Even when I wrote essays I often left the details of the ending until the final pass. It's a passion thing, I think.

I wonder if this light-weight end development is going to make writing the end drag out for six months again. The scene synopses are getting shorter and shorter, which kind of makes sense when you consider that exposition fades and is replaced by tension and action.

The entire outline is at 8400 words at the moment. I'm guessing there's another thousand words to go or so.
