I am approaching the final stage of writing the first draft of my novel. That means I am deep into my Google Docs moving around scenes and working on the pacing. It has been an exciting time creatively. The next step will be editing and revising. I must admit it that it feels pretty great to tally up my word count and realize I am not just spinning my wheels. It is adding up to something! I look forward to sharing my progress with you in the near future. The genre I am writing in is one of my favorites to read: Contemporary fiction that deals with relationships of family, friends and a little romance. Anyone who knows me also knows that I like to look at the humor in situations, so my novel features relatable characters who are dealing with challenges that touch the heart and the funny bone. I am learning it is not a sprint, but I am in this for the distance. My next update may include an excerpt. Stay tuned.
