Chapter 9 is the point at which the story really gets into territory I can't write. We'll see.
It may also be mildly NSFW.
End of day 7: ~12,750 words, 25.5%.

QE, I have noticed the following two things that might need to be looked at.
'not the kind of haphazard contact contact that a pair might find at the end'
The word contact twice shows here, and I was wondering if 'zog' as it is the name of a game should have a capital 'Z'.
Enjoying the story so far. Am very interested as to where it is going. DO not stop QE!
I've fixed the word duplication. I found it easily enough this time (having only used 'haphazard' once, if memory serves) but for future reference a chapter number would be really handy, since I don't yet have a means to do a full-text search across the whole work.
(Of course, now that I've actually come here and reread the post it was a comment to, Isee that I needn't have thought quite so hard about where to find the typo.)
I thought carefully about whether to capitalise 'zog' and decided that it would seem more organic and normal to my characters without one. Can't find decent examples right now, but sports don't normally get capitals unless you're trying to establish them as a brand.
Thanks for reading. A day off sick on Thursday broke my rhythm a little, but I'm now back within my target (albeit for the day that ended just over three hours ago). I certainly have no intention of stopping.
(Although I must admit, getting both objectives done [write 50,000 words within November, finish story within November] will be a challenge)
