Chirrratka Is Scary
I wrote a good 1600 words!
Some major plot points were developed too. Chirrratka (the psychotic slaver) and Rrraktotrrraka (the conflicted librarian) had a momentary standoff. Rrraktotrrraka has worked hard and has earned his rank, but Chirrratka is truly psychotic, so nobody really messes with him.
A tasty excerpt from the most recent addition:
I really have to learn how to draw, which means I really have to start practicing drawing. Not today.
In any case, I am pleased with today's progress, but, of course, it's never enough. The more I write, the more I need to write. Plus, the longer I write sustainedly, the easier it is to write. I need it!
Sigh.

"What the devil is the meaning of this?" bellowed the librarian, shoving Chirrratka back hard.It's gonna be a mess. As was indicated by a friend, the first few chapters make the book seem suited for elementary or middle school readers. I may have to change a lot to bring it forward a few grades. I don't want to get too gruesome, but I want Chirrratka's murderous madness to be somewhat visible. I am quite fond of how insane he is.
The soldiers watched silently without moving.
The slaver looked up. The mocking grin on his face was gone completely. In its place was a murderous glare. Chirrratka reached behind his waist and unsheathed his two daggers slowly. He spoke in a low growl, "For the time being, you may outrank me, but a dead lizard outranks no one."

Lots of fun reading your meanderings.
