May the First: 1678 words. It's a murder mystery based on Cinderella. Today's excerpt:
Once upon a time a man was murdered.Okay, so today was pretty bad prose-wise. I think that's why I got so frustrated last night and why I wrote barely minimum for the day. I think my plot is working out alright but maybe I just got out of the habit of writing prose like this. I dunno. Anyway, not entirely dreading tomorrow.
May the Second: 2324 total. I think May is not the right time to be able to focus. I just got out of school and the weather is just starting to let me take walks again. Prose still dull as dirt:

Never mind that there's also magic.
"I'm sorry," said Eviri quietly.
"Don't be." Dell smiled cockily. "The gentlemen who invited me were idiots anyway, and will invite me again."
Anyway, I don't really care, which is probably the worst of it.
