When you're staring down the short end of 150k, people, it's time to celebrate. That's right. I'm at 145k, and that's not the only good news. I've got three chapters and an epilogue left!!! That's it! Then I will do a rough draft editing pass before I send this sucker off to my beta readers.
I am feeling all kinds of good right now, about that. I will also post the final cover for your enjoyment in an upcoming post (have to have something to look forward to!).
So, yes, good news. Each chapter has three perspectives, and each perspective is a chapter length in itself, so I'm guessing it will take another couple of weeks to put that part in the bag, and it will probably be a month before the rough edit is done. I have a lot of clean up work to do and I have to check everything to make sure it fits overall with the previous novels. But I am seriously hoping for an end of the year publish date. (I don't want to say earlier and totally fail, but who knows, it could happen!)
Hope you are all well and happy reading!
