After being outsmarted by feral cats all day, I have, at least, more than met today’s writing goal.

I didn’t get started until late tonight, but fortunately, with backward NaNo, that works just fine. I only needed 1264 words today, and I managed to get 1785, bringing my cumulative total to 43,825. Less than 7,000 words to go until I cross the finish line.

NaNo Day 16: 36,564/50,000
