in silence trailing away/by the shore of the tumbling, clamorous, whispering sea

[hawkwing_lb]

Still too much in awe of Worldwired to say anything that makes sense. The Nasty Sick has also placed obstacles in front of my saying anything more coherent with regard to Narnia: I spent all my coherency on achieving not quite one third of my writing goal for today.

The Plan, before I contracted the Ick, was to write 3,500 words daily for the rest of the month of December. This, needless to say, did not happen today. However, I did get to switch to a different POV character for some of it, and this can be counted as Progress. Of a sort.
