1090 words this morning.
I like writing action scenes. I don't know why I don't do more stories involving more of them. They're easy, they're fun, and what feedback I have indicates they come out pretty good. And yet, even the stories I do that are centered around a fight scene are really more about the fall-out from the action than the action itself. Which is also the fun part, granted. But it does make me long for an all-action-all-the-time story, however much that would be a yin without its yang.
Still, nearly 1100 words. I feel a bit guilty counting these old-mission stories toward pay-copy quota, since I really don't know how well they work separately from the novel, but the idea is there. And the word count ain't peanuts.
