"The Black: Extinction" stands at 83.5k. Beginning to think this section will take another 20k to finish with another 10-40k for the actual end. Then? I get to write another 20-30k of interludes. This is going to be a BIG BOOK.
Fortunately, I have months to finish it.
Unfortunately, I want to know how it ends so I need to write faster.

Me: Need a YT trailer for #theBlack's return to the airwaves.
Me: *thinks*
Me: How about an animated lantern fish?
Brain: You going to become an expert in Blender?
