ROW80: A few Good Days
Just for clarity I am not wearing for of uniform while writing this. It's stupid o'clock on a Sunday morning, I happy I'm wearing trousers!
The last week was actually a very good one. Progress slowed as it always does during the weekend, but on the whole it was an excellent week. I think I averaged about 1000 words a day (editing that is) and I reached the point which was a personal milestone I had set. It wasn't the midway point of the novel, I had passed that a few days before, but rather the end of well… I guess Act 1. All of my characters the first 6 characters have all died (I know strange for the first novel in a series, but there is a point to it) and been sent to their respective Chambers in Hell. We have witnessed the Judgement process and heard their tales. In short they have now been introduced (although we will learn much more about them in the later novels of course).
Getting that done and making the step over to Act 2; bringing them together and actually introducing the 'trilogy'plot was one of those markers for me, as I am sure we all have. The point when both writing and editing that just says. You're gonna make it, the end is in sight.
In slightly sadder news my fund for cover art and a possible proofread have taken a hit with several funding sources (namely birthday presents) dried up but I don't mind. I am focused on finishing the book first before I worry about something else. There is always a way around such problems so why stress out about them?
How are thing going with all of you?
