February 9, 2016 Progress Notes:
The Robot Monuments
Words today: 1,200.
Words total: 12,200.
Reason for stopping: Time to start dinner.
Darling du Jour: It's been a year since I started balancing. None of it feels natural anymore: leaned against the grey wind on the ten-block walk to school, sleeping against the angle of ghost-elbows in a borrowed bed, shoulders at a permanent forty-five degrees.
Research Roundup: The Japanese word for "coal"; gyroscopes and weightlessness; geography of northern Japan.
Books in progress: Patricia A. McKillip, Kingfisher.
Back to this today, after some time with other projects I'm not logging publicly yet. The quiet seems to have given it things to say again. I think I closed more little gaps and built more transitions today than I have in the entire life of this file.
So while it feels weird to say, at this wordcount, that I almost have a complete scene, yeah. This one's like that.
