Woohoo, update number 10! Break out the bubbly! I demand fireworks and large statues in my honor!

Silliness aside, this is the last update I wrote before I started posting. As of this post, the ‘many’ in Many Words is defined as 6122 by wc, or about twenty handwritten pages (which are only a bit shorter than pages in the trade paperback[1] I just pulled off my shelf). For reference I’m currently on page 90 in my notebook, although there are a few pages of notes in there, and I always start entries at the top of a new page, so it’s not 90 pages of solid writing.

This is supposed to go live in four hours and ten minutes on the dot, so I’m going to stop writing now and look over this and the actual entry to make sure I didn’t make any glaring mistakes. I had wanted to say some things on theme that somewhere between 50 and 100 percent of my current readers already know, but I guess that’ll have to wait until Tuesday.

[1] The Ringworld Engineers, Larry Niven[2][3]
[2] One of my favorite authors, at least before he started that rishathra phase…
[3] I just tried the HTML sup tag for footnotes, and found I really don’t like the way it looks, so you’re stuck with numbers in brackets.
