Passed the halfway point a little late but I'm going well so far. Though still surprised at how a halved wordcount goal next to a normal NaNo is translating into double the slowness. Still can't work out what's with that.

But I've also finished off Arc 13 so the theatre storyline is now done - I just need to post it all and give some of the bit characters actual names rather than placeholders. Next up is the newspaper plot... which is going to be interesting because it's all about a couple of minor characters. Sort of the Love and Monsters of the MFSverse. Actually I don't think Rosa and the boys are going to show up at all in this one, but they deserve a rest after all the crap the universe has been putting them through.

Also I finished it off in a coffeeshop and I have a horrible feeling I'm going to end up one of those people who regularly shows up to type stuff over a drink... but I'm not complaining. And my weapon of choice is an Alphasmart. (I am so going to be bummed when mine dies, the company stopped making them... seriously considering grabbing a backup while I can because they are just that awesome.)

Bonus points for finishing off the Red Velvet prompts over some actual red velvet cake.
