NaNoWriMo updates.

Currently have 24,805 words thus far. Which is satisfying, although do remind me not to write this early in the morning (in my defense, I was kind of also kept awake by homework. Ugh). Got some pretty funny lines in, such as poking fun at the fact that even though the Second Death Star's improved a bit from the First one (having a shield, for example), it also has the matter of that one weakness in it -- and just adding some dialogue between Mara and company in general, which was pretty awesome. And building some worry about a possible suicide mission, considering that the Emperor's kind of playing the Rebels like marionettes (as is his wont). Anyway, I think this is the part where my NaNo's finally started clicking into place. I can just feel it, and it's awesome. And I'm off to bed. Better get some rest. 

NaNoWriMo updates.

Currently have 26,682 words. *Rubs wrists* Ouch. Anyway, managed to write some pretty funny lines, a decent emotional moment, and come up with Mara basically using Atton Rand's mind-shielding technique (only instead of counting pazaak cards and listing hyperspace routes, she's just sort of listing off bits of galactic history she's learned, etc.) to try and evade Ventress. How useful that will be is the question, but I came up with that because it did seem silly for Mara to just fly in there without shielding her Force presence from Ventress. Might write more of how everything turns out later. That and elaborate more on the Jabba's palace bit, even if that scene is still bothering the crap out of me.
