The Stats Behind Red Right Hand
With the release of Red Right Hand just over a week away, I thought it would be fun to once again share some quick, mainly ridiculous, stats about the book.
All numbers provided here represent my best guesses after a less-than-careful review of the manuscript, and I reserve the right to be proven utterly incorrect by eagle-eyed readers. I’ve also tried to keep things spoiler-free.
Words, words, words…
# of words in Red Right Hand: 131,932
War and Peace: 587,287
See These Bones: 131,1501

Need to ask about that beta reader club because I feel with my skills I could get your level of cursing up to unprecedented heights!

I was so behind with this last book that my beta reader group was mostly friends and family. Blood is Thicker Than Lots of Stuff (John Smith 2) will probably have a similarly small beta, but I'm planning to open things up a bit for One Tin Soldier's beta next summer/fall. I'd be happy to lean on your cursing expertise!
Sign me up! I need a new B-gig anyway (my usual go to has dropped his story-line as it was too close to our current reality for comfort, even for scifi)!
Sounds like a plan! I'm sure we'll chat before then, but if not, I'll reach out around August of next year, assuming OTS is ready for betas by then. :)
Sitting here (literally and really with little choice) waiting on your call! Happy writing!
