A long time...

So I know it has been awhile since I updated and I am hoping to put forth a better effort in the future. I started school again, just one class but I started late and ended up doing nothing but schoolwork for two days straight. After doing this, I ended up not wanted to do anything including writing do I did not do much for about a week.

I started working on chapter 10 more; put some hard work into an actual outline, which has helped a lot. With this chapter came some medical research that hopefully is accurate. I also have another person who is willing to take a look at the book with their critical eye so things are back on the "up and up"

Update before midnight!

So this should be the second real post of the New Year. So far, this has been an interesting year and it has only just started.

I have decided that I will be doing NaNoWriMo this year, which is the national novel writing month. The month of November I will be starting and finishing my second book regardless if that one is finished or not. That decision is hard for me but I am committed to doing this with a few friends of mine, all of which are writing in different genres so it will be exciting.

The other thing is that I am starting to be more open with my writing and talking about it to others. I actually gave someone the first chapter and am waiting feedback from that while I will be sending about 45 pages of my first draft off to be checked over by another editor of mine.

I also worked on chapter 10, got just under 700 words so far. I am also typing out chapter 7 at this moment so a lot has been done and will be done provided my Xbox does not get in the way.

Not much to say really. Started chapter 10 but not much has been finished because I am really tired.

1st real post of the New Year

Well Happy Holidays.... Merry Christmas and New Years. If you celebrate something else then sorry but I do not.

I started working on the book more, planning to finish it this year so I have a long way to go. I just finished typing out chapter 6, which I thought I had finished earlier but I was wrong, and now at 11542 for a word count right now. I have to type out seven, eight and nine. This should put me up to about 3500+ words. I have that amount already written but I normally add a lot to those numbers when it is typed. With 6, I added about 1300 words when it was typed so I am expecting lot. First real typed draft I am hoping for about 50k and then edit it so I am over 80k.
