Looking for a Term

Nov21

I’ve started writing Inner Circle. (“…and a gladiator on top..”)

They like their titles (because I like my titles), and in the case of those who shortcut the Ladder (which is social upward mobility with a system), they gain a title/name showing that service.

Gladiator is easy.

What do you call someone who does it by agreeing to essentially debt/bond servitude for a period of xx years?

First and Last Words: New Project!

Nov21

First Line of Inner Circle: “Kneel, Taslin Altreka.”
(the first ~300 words were a redo of The Test Intro)

Last line of the night:
The woman started walking, and Valran, having been given no other directive, followed her.

I wrote 2389 words (my goal is 1700/day for 11 days), bringing me to a total of 2389 words, and a nano grand total of 63,045

First and Last Words: DONE!

Nov20

First Line of Yesterday: “It was her. It had to have been her that did it.”

Last line of today: (from an interlude, as I went back and filled those in once I got to the end end end) – “I didn’t know anyone else cared about this…”

I wrote 3,405 words yesterday and 374 this morning, bringing the total first draft of Edally Academy: The Angry Aetherist to 60,656 words.

And now I can go work on the candy story!
