Up to 33,000 words on Beneath the Eye. The entire plot is pretty well outlined, and I'm just filling in the gaps and adding some extras. My current mini-goal is 40k, but that's just a step to 80k!
After a week and a bit off (bad timing!) to go see family, I finished NaNoWriMo at 24k words. Not super, but good for a first attempt and first drafts usually taking me 6-8 months, I think! I've got the basic plot down, mostly bare bones stuff.
Time to shelve for now, work on improving my last book I just got some feedback on (and then re-releasing) before finishing up the first draft to my goal of 80k! First draft for NaNoWriMo, tentatively titled Beneath the Eye, is up to 16k words! Out of a goal of 50k for the entire month, I'm 1/3 of the way there and only 1/4 into the month. :D
Mostly on time! I'm at 12,000 words on my WIP, which is a record, compared to what I've usually accomplished. Probably a bit of a mess, but definitely a good framework for my next novel!
NaNoWriMo in 2 days, and I've completed and published The Leavers!!! Working on a concept for next month's attempt at completing a novel-length WIP in the entire month of November. :O Wish me luck!
https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B076DRLPJB Updating my print books' sizes and formatting inside (they're now available in both 6x9" and 5x8" sizes) and decided to fix up Watership's cover at the same time!
A vast improvement, IMO. The Leavers is nearing a close!! Editing is almost done--just have the end to wrap up, and it's ready for publication!
Though I may need to put it on the backburner for next month (and it's probably a good idea for maximum inspiration for the last few scenes and climax) as I will, for the first time, be taking part in NaNoWriMo....ie, writing a novel in the one month of November! Got the near-to last comments and critiques from my beta readers, and I'm about halfway through edits on The Leavers! It's a grind but it's good to see the story actually finally taking shape. I'm excited to publish it even more now, especially with the new cover.
