Cruisin' Along

I hit 88,000 words. I will try to finish the novel in 9 more scenes. Getting close.

Movin' Along

Having new readers, especially those who are close by and give me almost instant feedback, has pushed me toward the finish line on this novel, my first. My word count is now 84,000+. I'm just starting on Chapter 25 of what should run about 30 chapters. My goal is to be finished with the actual writing by mid-March. I have a week off coming up then, and I will use that time to edit what's there, write a synopsis, and begin my search for an agent and/or publisher.

While I'm in the wait-zone, I'll make notes for the two connecting novel ideas I have. I'll also look at doing some minor rpg writing, just to keep my hands in the mix.

Back to work!

After a long hiatus, I've started back writing on my romance novel. I hit 78,000 words this evening. I also have 2-3 more readers giving me feedback on it. I think I needed their spark to get me back to work on this. I'm getting so close. I can FEEL the end.
