NaNoWriMo 2019: Day 12

This is just one of those days in which the writing flowed well, but it's clearly a transition chapter.

Although I love writing in Scrivener, I am using Google Docs for NaNoWriMo 2019. I can bring my Chromebook with me to my office and write anywhere. The known little quirk in Google Docs is the 10,000-word mark. If a file gets a little more than 10K, it starts to go wonky. So I break my stories up into 10K chunks.

I started Part III today. By the end of the month, I'll have at least five of these parts to make up the entire novel. Tomorrow I'll reach the exact halfway mark (word wise), officially two days ahead of schedule.
