Day - 305

The Final Act

I will admit that the last three weeks have been a blur. Between going out of town, work, and editing/formatting Red Bow, I haven't been able to update the blog as regularly as I would like to. However, the takeaway from the whirlwind that was the last three weeks is that Red Bow has been self published on Lulu.com. My copy arrives on Friday. Since Crush and Red Bow are now done, that means that it's time to get started on "Untitled."

I have 60 days left until my one year deadline. This is the goal that I am setting for myself:

50 days to write
10 days to edit and then publish on Lulu

If I keep the pace I was using for Red Bow of writing at least 2000 words per day, I should easily hit this goal. In fact, I will hit that goal on day 35. The target is 70,000 words or more for "Untitled."

I have outlined the first three chapters for "Untitled" and will begin writing today after work. I'm excited because I think that this book is going to be some of the best writing that I've ever written. I have a solid understanding of where the plot needs to go and I will be focusing a lot more on developing the plot line and making sure it doesn't have any holes.

So what do you think blog readers? Do you think I can hit this lofty goal?

I write because I care and drugs are bad.....

Can I Get Published In A Year
