I've been down with the flu for the past couple of days and haven't had the energy to do much else than trying to sleep. But I do have about 650 words of backstory written, which I assume will be around 2500-3000 words when I'm done, if I continue at the current rate. I think I'll try to cut down a little, as it most likely doesn't need to be that long. I'm trying to write in the style of a biblical historical narrative, which is new to me. It seems appropriate, though. I've also been reading the Book of Enoch. Fascinating stuff.
