nanowrimo is not going so well. circumstances have conspired to allow me to fall well behind. so far it might be too hard to catch up. we'll see what another weekend of effort can do. despite this i am enjoying it. something about the excuse to just sit down and write despite a constant drive to look for reasons not to.

"The station is weirdly beautiful. Covered in blue light, the colour of neon reflected in a lover's eyes, it seems to be alive. Its web of collectors extend and contract along its length like a deep sea creature propelling itself along some dark sea bed, seeking and catching antimatter created in the tearing of the high energy rays passing through the planet's magnetosphere."
