2200 words today. I’m cruising along at minimum speed, but this book requires a little more focus, dedication, and the sacrifice of my speed somewhat for the next day or so as I establish it. My hope is that I’ll be back to good speeds soon. But, I’ll take 2K days stacked together. They still add up in a big way at the end of a week—14,000 words is not a bad number by any means.
Anyway, I got the strategy book off to my designer, who will have it back Monday morning. That means I should be able to publish Monday evening after work.
I also got the paperback covers for Cold Hard Magic and Dead Rat Walking, so I went ahead and published those. They should be available as soon as tomorrow morning.
I’m writing a guest blog article for ALLi so that will occupy the rest of my night.
I also did some thinking about my 2022 strategy today. It’s almost that time of year where I focus on it, and I may start a little early. I have a fun idea for next year. We’ll see if I do it…
Have a good one.
