600 words today: Strange Flesh chapter 1 is now 1800/4000 words. Running out of synonyms for "white", which is what happens when you put quasi-albinoes on a snow planet.

Oh yes! Although I think we only have one drum between us. :)

Maybe you should ask the Inuit for some advice on that front. ;)

In that kind of situation, would there even be a word for white, if it's not necessary, since it's just something that _is_?

Why not have one whole chapter in the middle where suddenly, the only word used for white is "white". Ya know, for sound reasons of synonymical economy the lulz. =:o}
