I doubt I'll reach my intended count for the month...
But I wrote the climax chapter of the book and about 1/3 of the next chapter...which leaves 1 and 2/3, plus the epilogue, to go. Since both the next chapter and the epilogue should be fairly short, I should at least get this draft done by the end of the month, so I will be satisfied with that.
Wrote nearly 5k today, so I'm passing the buck of to whomever's next.
