SeptNoWriMo 2013-09-01

1914 words. Possibly more later, but that's a good start, I think. On the other hand, I started writing at noon, it is now eight-thirty, and while there were things in between that weren't writing, that's still an awfully long time to get to a reasonable one-day word count for a --NoWriMo.

Snippet:

That was the first choice; that might be the biggest choice. Danger in my future, whatever I did; safety only in the past, to which I couldn't return. Enough time in the present to steal the go bag Rae thought nobody knew about—I hadn't one of my own because I didn't have her secret—repack it with clothes that fit me instead of her, pack up my laptop and guitar, and go.

I had my marching orders: Chin up, stand tall. Walk for miles in a hurry to nowhere at all. This is my test. Trust only this heart in my chest.
