And with 762 words – it is Done

It is written.

I just finished the third of my Jonathan Alvey novels, ‘Nine of Cups’.
With a total word count of 93,757 I typed – The End

It took me much longer than I thought it would when I started it about a year ago.

I had a long dry season where not a single word was added. This occurred around the half way mark of the book and the longer it went on, the more annoying it was, and also – the harder it was to get back into it.

Now though, I am happy and relieved to announce that the first draft is completed.

I will put it away for a bit, while I do the first round of edits on the second installment in my paranormal P.I. novels, ‘ Bindings & Spines.

Sometimes it is good to be a writer. The birth pains can be extreme on occasion, and the process that happens from birth to maturity is hard it is also thoroughly rewarding.

So now I change tracks – and mind set – and begin to raise the second novel up properly.
