I've just turned in the second set of edits to my next novel, and I'm 5 chapters in on the first draft of the third installment of the trilogy.

Got past the difficult bit, I think, and have done the through pass to chapter 18; one or two more evenings ought to finish this pass on #1.

Finally made some good progress on The Sequel last night, though the wordcount has gone way down...how does that happen?

(Actually, I know exactly how it happened; I 86'd a subplot that wasn't working, and am still finding traces of it that need to be excised.)

Dusted off a shelved idea on a whim, an Epic Fantasy with a twist and a gimmick I am excited about. I have been making strides to work on the project a little bit each day so I would be writing each day.

So far I have been World-Building, researching, plotting a macroview and am working on the outline for the novel itself. Although I could hope to write a series, I'll write the first book as though it's all I'll get with room for expansion.

A total of about 65% of the pre-writing done so far. If I want to actually finish the thing then after finals next week I'm going to have to content lock the world-building so that I can actually start writing scenes and not get scope creep.

I managed 2500 words over the weekend. The biggest news is that I recieved my book cover design from my artist. I was floored at the awesomeness of it! There were a couple small edits I requested, and then I will reveal it and my book's synopsis on my blog.

Way to go DP. Having a Cover is one of the most awesome parts about creating your own book. I'm glad to hear your cover is totally ruling!

Keep pounding away, you can do it!

Been sidetracked with projects for the Battletech gaming line, and Battletech stories for the last week, will try to get back to it this week.....

Neat cover DP. Keep up the good work. I'm writing full time and I managed a record setting all time high of 11k in one day! Woo hoo go me!

1k a day to keep the gremlins away is a great achievement and I hope everything works out great for you!

Let me know when it comes out.
