Deep breaths. You'll do great.
At chapter 14, I've realized my revised version is on track for something like 70-80 chapters. Is that an insane number? On the positive side I try to end each chapter on a hook of some sort so I'll end up with a lot of hooks.
How long are your chapters?
They vary. About 2000 words on average right now. I averaged about 5700 words per chapter in the rough draft.
I was hit with a small bit of inspiration last night. Wrote it down and posted it in my blog as a Tuesday Teaser. Went back and looked at it and was stunned that it was actually pretty good.
This manuscript has been kicking my ass so hard, I tend to regard anything that comes easily with deep suspicion.
I have ideas for a sequel to my current story kicking around. Now I have an idea for another unrelated story kicking around. I still need to concentrate on my revision and the content going into into it. Too many ideas.
1,395 words to go. I want to get this story finished TONIGHT, so I can have all of tomorrow for revisions. Aaauugh. Also, I am apparently incapable of remembering how to spell homunculi, no matter how often it appears in the story.
... aaaand done. Off the story goes to the beta readers. If GoogleDocs starts behaving, that is.
I've never tried google docs for my betas...how does this magical thing work?
Clicky the linky, log in to google, edit as usual but with no emailing pages back and forth. It's very easy.
