Whohoo! Congratulations, Susan! Good work!
No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
That is a lot more than something Susan.
That is woohooworthy. Congratulations.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Thanks, y'all.
I just finished typing everything in--it's 124,500 words using the page count estimate method, 112,711 using Word's counter. (A normal amount of disparity, especially for dialogue-dependent writers.) That's 498 pages in 12-point, 25-line-per-page Courier New.
I'm going to let it rest for a week--do some of the housecleaning I've been neglecting, read for fun, and maybe draw up an editing strategy--and dive back in sometime next week.
