Lots of writing, nothing to report

I've been writing ... Gods, how I've been writing. Unfortunately, it's all been for The Paying Job, which leaves me absolutely no motivation to write fiction.

The last week has consisted of management asking "When?" And me replying "You know that each of these procedures is between 10-15 pages of documentation, and that there are over 80 of them, right? And that I have to sit with the reconcilers and learn each process before I can write about it, right? And that the lower-than-management-but-higher-than-me Powers That Be have been handing me stylistic changes to make on 26 procedures already written? I'm working on it."

So. I've written 6 procedures this week, roughly totalling 65 single-spaced document pages. Sadly, all of it has been at *mumble* an hour, and none of it on Dawning Sun.

Perhaps while Shoryl works on the Great Lego Sort this evening, I'll dig back down into my sources and notes and come up with some scenes. Or perhaps I'll just hug some yarn. Only time will tell.
