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:
"What the devil is the meaning of this?" bellowed the librarian, shoving Chirrratka back hard.
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."
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.

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.
