Novel Watch #4: +2.5 pages [15.5 total]

I wrote most of chapter 4, which means I added a good chunk of a conversation between Bandolor and Iggsle, as well as some other stuff. I think I’ll need to go back to it tomorrow and force the language to be slightly more medieval, as well as expand the narrative portions of it. I need more Iggsle!

Still, I made progress. I’m hoping to average at least 2 pages a day for the entire month of August . . . and I’m just barely there so far.

Iggsle is so domestic. Finkerner isn’t:

There was mud on the table. Iggsle had grown accustomed to Fink’s lack of manners, but it still irked him to see it. The man spent his day elbow deep in dirt, and thought nothing of tracking it in at suppertime. Iggsle wasn’t a man of royal cleanliness by any standard, but Fink’s dirt and mud always seemed to have seed in it, and if Iggsle didn’t clean up after dinner he could expect to see weeds growing in his kitchen floor, or worse, on the table.
