Progress
Happy Friday! This weekend will be filled with Spawn's fall carnival at school, getting my hairs did, and attending a friend's baby's christening. But i can I just say how much I'm looking forward to Day Light Savings ending? It's tough to get out of bed when it looks like it's still the middle of the night.
On the work front, things are progressing for Silver-Tongued Devil. I hit the 200 page mark this week. Usually my books are anywhere from 325 to 350 pages, but my first drafts are always short. I figure I have about 100 pages left in the draft, then I'll take a short break from it to let it simmer. My goal is to finish the draft by the end of the month. That'll give me two months for revision. Totally doable if I don't let the holidays derail me.
I've also been making notes on a new series idea I hope to pitch in the spring. It's an idea I've been sitting on for a couple of years, but recently my muse has been working over time. I can't share any details yet, but it's an urban fantasy without … brace yourselves … vampires. But I'm super psyched to work on it once I finish off the Sabina series. It's a little scary to think about working on a different series after being with Sabina and the gang for so long, but I can't rest on my creative laurels. Anyway, more on that once I get the proposal written and sold.
I hope everyone has a great weekend. Any fun plans for this first weekend of November?
