I'm calling it.
Jul. 30th, 2010 12:53 pmAnd lo, despite much -- including an utter revamping of the mid-section AND the ending -- going wrong, the Structural Draft of Vineart War #3 is DONE.
[okay, I haven't written the final half-chapter yet. It's outlined to a fare-the-well, waiting for next iteration]
On Monday, the break-and-repair 2nd draft will commence. For now: I fall over*.
[And hey, I'm only a month off projected schedule. *faceplants*]
For those who like stats, I expect the book to end up at 120,000 words. Which is, coinkydentally, exactly the same as books 1 and 2.
*actually, for now I am going to work on the two proposals that are chewing at me, in the hopes that someone will actually someday want another book from me. Should I attack the recent-alt-history-weirdness one, or the dark UF?
