Progress Report 11

Chapter complete!  Fun with robots, learning to swim, rat-leather, duct tape and other things that make the world go round.  Also jobs for the homeless.  I do good works in my imagination.

chapter 17 word count - 2544

running grand total word count - 42,988

I realized today that I forgotten some simple grammatical rules.  Most notably the "its" conundrum.  Apostrophe only in the possessive, or only in the extremely handy "it is" contraction.  File this under "stuff I knew thirty years ago but never needed in a busy lifetime of smoking pot, eating acid, and sipping Shiners."

Stay in school, don't do drugs, and write something everyday.  You'll thank me when you are 40.
