On Cartel

But he's sixteen and he's driving too fast, takes a turn to the left--it would be his last. The body knows what happens if he turns to the right. The body in the car would have died that night...

~Cartel, Wasted

Oh! And I strongly suggest checking out one of the iTunes free downloads this week titled John, the Word of Promise Next Generation Audio Bible: ICB: Free Audio Book. Well, I don't recommend it if you're Jewish, because it's all about Jesus being the son of God. But it is amazing. Like a story. The entire thing is the audio book of John (the Baptist, the guy from the Gospels) and so far I am hooked. I've listened to nearly two out of three hours of it. Hello, wonderful.

I did manage to reach 25k last night. Well, this morning, because I dropped off somewhere around midnight with 23k and miraculously came back at 2am, typed a thousand words, dropped off and again woke up two hours later. I finished the last k somewhere around 4:30, because I emailed it to myself at 4:34. Other than that, the night was a blur of words, and I know that when I go back to edit this thing, half of it is getting executed, and at least a quarter will be replaced. 25k brings be down to about a quarter of my outline, so the entire book will top off somewhere around 100k if I keep going at the rate I'm going. I won't, I know. Last year brought me 95k. Let's go for more!

I'm nearly done with Bloody Jack: My Bonny Light Horseman, and that upsets me. Though it's definitely on the short side and I can spot many, many places where more detail would be wonderful, I am turning out to really like it. I do believe it shall be my favorite, perhaps after the first one. In fact, my list of the books in order according to how I like them at this very moment is:

1--Bloody Jack
2--My Bonny Light Horseman
3--In the Belly of the Bloodhound
4--Under the Jolly Roger
5--Mississippi Jack
6--Curse of the Blue Tattoo

So now I must wait around until Rapture of the Deep Comes out, and then the Wake of Lorelei Lee. Ah!
