Off Yet Again

New book is underway.  First page is done and I’m working on the second.

This will be the second book of the new series, my fourteenth book as an adult author, my sixteenth book as a published author, and my twenty-third book in total.  Still takes me pretty much the same amount of work as when I started.  I’m a much better writer now than I was back then, but all the time and effort I save on more effective ways of doing things I spend on trying to make the book better.

Target date for completing the first draft is mid-June.  I’m not confident that I’ll make it, but we’ll see.

H.D. Scott That's great! Nice to know that your process is consistent and you even have an educated guess on how long it will take. I've always been amazed how truly creative projects can fall into a schedule (of sorts). I've just passed 20k words into the rough draft of my 2nd book and it feels much longer than the 1st novel (even though it is a sequel and I'm following the same process). No clue when it'll get done!
