Wow, I actually have fifteen chapters in this book! :D Why did I stop! *doesn't understand myself*OVER 35,000 words too! :D
Wow! I can't believe I stopped at that spot ... right in the middle of scene and chapter! :DWell, those fifteen chapters were good - now time to write more!
I always love finding out that I'd written more in a WIP that I had previously (the reasons unbeknownst to my present self) dropped. I especially love it when that draft is better than I'd thought it would be! Best of luck!

He bent down close to Clint, their faces only inches apart from each others. “This is the last you're getting until you give us the information we want, ya hear me?” He grabbed the front of Clint's shirt, shaking him. “This is your last chance, even though I've already given you way too many.” He let him fall on the floor again.

Great work! It's a little weird reading about Clint getting roughed up since my heroine's brother is named Clint ;P But all the same, interesting excerpt!

Really, I would tell you, but it would ruin the story! :D:D It's also in Chapter Sixteen .... ;)
Word written today: 1,697Excerpt from Chapter Sixteen:
“Lord,” he whispered, “if you're someone that helps people—anyone—help me.” His voice faded off and he relaxed his taunt shoulders. “I don't know what to do anymore. Release this weight burdening me and get me out of this situation. I can do nothing … anymore. Just set me free.” He took in a labored breath. “Please.”
I'm at chapter seventeen now and on the last scene of Part One!! :)
Well, would you believe it if I said I'm making two books instead of two parts?! And I'm also changing the title name/s? :D
Nicki wrote: "How fun! A series! What are you changing the titles to?"Yes!!! ;) Well, they're still sort of pending, but these are what I have right now:
"Entwined Lives" and "The Man in the Midst!"

Thanks!!!! :D I think I'm going to do "The Man on the Run" for the first book's title instead of "Entwined Lives!" :)

I don't know...maybe after I figure out my series name!! :D Do you think I should put both covers on this thread, or go ahead and make the books on Goodreads?
If it were me, I would just put the covers in the thread (then again, when I start a new story, I never know if it even reaches completion, never mind publishing...)

THanks!!!!! :) It actually took me quite a while to finish ... I started it a couple years ago!

I've decided to get back to writing it. Right now, I'm reading through what I've already written so i can fix punctuation - I started writing it when I didn't know much about all that stuff! ;)
Anyway, we'll see how it goes!
I'm going to have two parts. The first part is currently over 150 pages!
About the book? Well, it's a mystery! That's about it or I'll spoil everything!
