Tuesday I didn't get much done, because I fell asleep waiting for DH to get home from Boston (there was a minor snafu in his travel plans, but it was relatively easy to resolve) and then went on to bed with him rather than stay up writing. Wednesday I was back at work, and settled in late last night for what I planned as an all-nighter, to make up for Tuesday's lack of progress.
I was fairly successful! Chapters seventeen through twenty are revised and edited, and seventeen lacks only a couple of short scenes I just couldn't visualize last night and will work on today (hard copy) while eating turkey and pumpkin pie at three separate (!) Thanksgiving dinners. Betas will get the lot of them as soon as I finish seventeen, and then it's on to twenty-one.
Since we last saw them, E & A have argued over intervening in another clan's affairs, Elspth leaves for Glencoe on her own and falls in a loch, Alec follows and rescues her, and the two try to prevent the massacre at Glencoe, where Alec is captured by Breadalbane. We leave our intrepid hero in the cell at Kilchurn, bruised, weary, and sentenced to death. Elspeth is in Glenstrae, and just learned the news. She and Hugh set out to rescue him.
Twelve chapters left, and 4 days. That's 3 chapters a day over a long weekend. I think I might pull this off...
Announcer: Will she succeed before she hits the wall of exhaustion? Tune in tomorrow, same bat time, same bat channel!
