Tappity tappity tappity. Over 200 pages on the novel. Nyaah.

Not anywhere near done. I'd say this is going to go to about 600 pages or so--not book pages, but standard manuscript format pages. I'm still in the beginning stages of the plot, the part where things get more and more complex, and the stakes increase. The movers and shakers behind the plot have not yet been revealed.

True to form, though: another character just died off.

I doubt she'll stay dead, but there you go.
