Sort of looks like a relatively unproductive day, but I worked hard for those words. I'm editing chapter one, mostly because when I originally wrote it I didn't actually know where the story was going, and now I have a much better idea. But there was enough good stuff there I didn't want to toss, so I'm going back to sort of slot in new details and foreshadow later developments, that kind of thing, and it's a lot more time-consuming and tetchy than just writing straight forward into blank white space. At least for me.
