My original goal in writing this thing was 100,000 words.

I blew through that.

So I upped the goal to 125,000 words.

I have now blown through that.

I broke 130,000 words, plus a couple hundred, today.

Think I'll have the first draft done by 150,000? Shall we make a betting pool? I'm actually thinking 175,000 by the time it's said and done, because I've not done any villain scenes at all and Janni's part of this isn't even sketched out yet.

*headdesks repeatedly*

I'm grappling with the fact that I need to hack probably close to 10k. I hate when I story demands more words than you feel you need.

I don't think this story needs this many words, honestly. It's just that I don't outline and it's more fun to come up with new ways to break Ben than it is to figure out how the hell his wife is actually going to find him.
