I'm getting there...

Finished last night around 1300 words. Started about three hours ago, and I'm up to 1700 words. Here's hoping!

EDIT, 7:20: I've got 2600 words! Just need to throw in a bit of local material and a brief conclusion and I'm done. That shouldn't take more than three hundred words.

DONE!!!

2545 words after final editing and writing. Used sixteen primary sources and six secondary sources. One down, three to go. Not bad for a paper that isn't due until Wednesday. Now I get to research and write another paper, this time 3500 words long, to hand in on Friday. Yay.

And now, to sleep, perchance to dream.
