I think I'm done writing for the evening. 2043 words today for a total of 3312 in the novel draft and 10495 in the words for the month. And the first chapter is done! I think. Down to just tweaks, anyway.

Snippet:
Leah, after all, had no power over fire. She couldn't start them, accidentally or on purpose, without doing so deliberately and with full knowledge and intent that lighting the match would cause a flame. [...] Becca by contrast had vivid memories of setting other kids' hair on fire when they teased her about her own. The fires were always out by the time adults came investigating, and no one could prove anything about any of the incidents, but however much Becca had wanted the fires to start, never once had she consciously meant to start them.

I am so enjoying this, seriously. Complicated women with complicated interactions and a whole lot of love, even where it's difficult or bittersweet or unwillingly accepted.

Glad you're happy! (Saw your post re this. Very glad you're happy.) And we haven't seen the half of it, seriously, I'm only one chapter in after all.
