rainwatersparkNovel #4 is currently 66k words!
I've sent the draft to my beta, who promised to read it and return feedback by the end of the weekend. I know there is more I need to add to my draft (I'm pretty sure I can reach 70k, but I would feel more comfortable sending this to my agent if it's at least 75k words, so hopefully I can reach that), but my brain is pretty dead right now, so I'm going to wait until I can brainstorm with my beta after they've read it.
In the meantime, I'm *trying* to forget everything about this book so I'll be able to edit it with fresh eyes and ideas, hopefully? But I've also forgotten what I even do on the weekends anymore when I'm not working on this book, lol...
If I can get a draft of this book by the end of March that has the plot fully fleshed out and that I'm pretty happy with, I can start sending it to other CPs in April, with the goal of sending the manuscript to my agent hopefully by the end of May.
Fingers crossed!
