I wanted to round out one element with a subplot which will bring the novel up to 90,000. However, once I really get into revision, that may go shorter–or longer–but not by much.
Novel Done!
It’s only 80,000 words, and I have some ideas for a bit of expansion in the revision.
75,000 words and Chapter 13done
Need I say more? The end is looming!
A Great Four Days
Revised Chapter 10, and wrote Chapter 11 AND 12, and revised both. Also did a first pass at the revisions for my short story, using the critiques of my writers’ group from last week. Overall, very productive. Can’t wait to start chapter 13 – maybe as early as today (though I have regular life back, as well). This is a short novel, only 80,000 words, so the home stretch is in sight!
Wrote another chapter for the novel
It is going so smoothly–is something wrong? Finished Chapter 10 yesterday and was pulled in too many directions to look at it today, but tomorrow–revision! Very happy, though.
