lagilmanTitle: "Strong Earth"
Starting point: 1,100 words of outline
Goal: 20,000 words of story
new words: 1,159 & some backstory editing
Total words: 11,421
Research: more about CoE than I ever wanted to know, and it still didn't answer the question.
Excerpt:
“Oh, drat.” Her finger smoothed the page gently, as though the act would bring the word into sharper reveal. But her Gift worked on living, growing things, not long-dead ink and paper.
Dead Bodies: their souls are commended to God...
Plot Changes: the next twist is about to appear
Things magical: more avoiding than doing
For those of you who've donated to Clarion as part of encouraging me to move forward, thank you! And yes, I'm looking for a way to work your names into the story. *evil chortle* If you're still considering: http://www.theclarionfoundation.org/writeathon/wrtn-writerpage.php?writerID=4954
