Seems that OpenOffice3 interprets an opening quotation mark as a wrod This means I'ma little behind where I thought. That's not a problem. I can catch up.

Spent a lot of today rearranging the story a little an changing the political situation. It's now a civil war rather than an invasion. Main character now spends a lot more time in the city, experiencing the hardships directly. Also since there's ethnic conflict main character is now from a mixed background. Am spending a bit more time doing the selfish highwayman bit. The giving to the poor bit can wait.

I now have a chunk of orphaned plot that needs to be slotted in somewhere. It was in the wrong place anyway. If my MC is going to kill 3 people I don't want her to do it too early in the story.

Also have a few bits that don't make so much sense anymore. Will need to do a little more rewriting.

tfft.. it looks like the version I'm using is probably counting correctly! That is a good thing (TM) as adding more to the 10-16k word deficit would not promote happy happy joy joy feelings.

I'm really wondering if I should have set up SVN or similar for this year to control different versions. I can imagine that might help with more complicated reworkings.
