The little girl with the crooked and smudged chin

The title speaks for itself. I wanted to do a bit of drawing, so I did. It is a tiny drawing of a little girl and she has a crooked and smudged chin. The smudge did not exist until I tried to fix the chin. When it did smudge, I stopped trying to fix the chin. That is all.

As for the writing, it is coming along... I wrote 2056 words this morning. In addition to that, I decided to merge my documents into one document. I had 20 documents total and they are just bits and scenes and I had to make decisions on what position they would take in the grand scheme of the document. I think I have it right, but I may not. After I completed this task, I did a total word count, and discovered that I have a couple of hundred words more than I thought I had. That was a relief as I was prepared for the worst, thinking that I would have thousands less. So, how many words then? This giant 96 1/2 page mess of a document has 32,825 words. Crap or not, I feel a strange sense of accomplishment.

While drawing today, I started another young adult audio tape. This one is called The Astonishing Adventures of Fanboy and Goth Girl by Barry Lyga. I'm enjoying it so far, but the one I just finished listening to, Speak, was so extraordinary, that I'm feeling a bit of a let down. Speak was not only a great book, but the reader, if she wasn't a young girl, had a young girl's voice and it was perfect for the book. This one is read by someone that is obviously a grown man and it's just not totally working for me. Not that I don't think that can work. I just think this one is a bad fit, that's all.
