I somehow forgot to note Chapter 09, which was 6900 words, bringing the total to 57,500 at that point.

I just now finished Chapter 10, another 4800 words, bringing the total up to date at 62,300 words.

Oh, I also had a book cover made.  https://setinstonestory.wordpress.com/book-cover/

(Now all I have to do is figure out why the book cover size uploaded wrong.)

Set In Stone has been updated twice.

Chapter 16 at roughly 6000 words

Chapter 17 at roughly 7700 words

Total now at roughly 108k


I also popped out a 30-40k fanfic for fun in the last couple weeks.  Set In Stone just takes so much more care to write, because it's supposed to be rational.
