At the time of writing, I have four nights to go before NaNoWriMo 2014 hits. One of those nights is being spent watching rasslin', so that's a write-off. I've got ten chapters of The Lightless Labyrinth left to redraft, which is doable, depending on how extensive those redrafts need to be. I'm thinking they'll be more extensive the closer I get to the end, but I think I can still make it.
I also want to sit down and plot out part 3 in detail before NaNo begins. I've learned from experience that the words flow out faster when I know where I'm going. Inevitably it's all going to be rewritten down the road, but I'd like the stuff that I bang out in November to be as usable as possible.
Overall, I'm looking forward to it. The redrafting process has been really refreshing, and I find that I'm enjoying what I wrote. I'm confident that there's a good book there just waiting to be finished.

The Lightless Labyrinth - redrafted part 1, chapters 7-23, and part 2, chapters 1-8. Current word count: 52,908 (up about 1,000 words since last week)
