... and this is why I never seem to finish anything.

I've written 7,000 words today (!!!) -- but not in the novel I was supposed to be working on. No, this is an entirely different novel, which I suppose is going to need a plot sooner or later. Also, only one character has a name yet. At one point I tried randomly generating names using dice to pick out letters. That went about as well as could be expected.

Most of my novel efforts to date have been YA, and I think one reason this one is going so quickly (so far) is because, apparently, I have this whole bottled-up part of me that wants to swear and write about lowlife characters doing lowlife things. *g* I think these people would feel right at home in Kismet.
