Weekly Progress Update:
Woohoo, lots of progress this weekend!
I started my weekend (Friday morning) with 92 pages remaining (out of 309) for editing. My goal was to be at 50 pages left by the end of Sunday – so 14 pages per day. Instead, I managed:
Friday: 25 pages
Saturday: 20 pages
Sunday: 17 pages
By the end of today, I’ll only have 30 pages left, so just under 10%. I have one more week of work, then I’ll be on vacation from 10/4 – 10/13. By the 13th, I want to have the final drafts uploaded, covers completed, and waiting for sample copies to make sure everything looks good. All of which should definitely be doable.
I will say, my plans for starting with the spin-off then moving to Book 3 may have flipped – which I always expected may happen after reading through Madness. I’m not ready to make a final decision on that, but it’s looking that way.
In other news, the next Short Story contest begins in two days! So keep an eye out for the Submission Guidelines, which will be posted on Tuesday. This time, there will be a prompt/theme that everyone must follow, so don’t start until you see it.
See you next week!
