I don't know when the book will be released but I'm guessing somewhere in the next six months. Don't take my word for it; I'll post more details here when I get them.
Maybe that was my reward for slogging over the same book for three months. Here's hoping the next book won't take as long to write, no matter how long it is.
Oh, speaking of length, not that size is important...*cough*...I may have said that Stay the Night would be a novella? Well, er, it's a wee bit longer than expected. The submission copy was 52,000 words long, so yep, I definitely write looooong.
Never mind. It just makes for more filth. And who can argue with that?
Jared sure wouldn't.
Congrats!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see proof that you don't have to follow the "let it simmer" advice you see so often. I've never gotten much out of letting work sit in a drawer for 3 months, but if you say that out loud, most writers give you weird looks.
Thanks. :D
ReplyDeleteI'm too impatient to wait to edit. Once I've finished a first draft, I feel like it's taunting me. It should be out there, earning its keep as a manuscript, not loafing about on my hard drive!
Because I write the chapters out of sequence (when I outline, that is; if I pants something, I write in order) going back over it in reading order still feels fresh to me. Or maybe I'm just making excuses for that damned impatience again.
Still, it's working for me so far, no matter how crazy my methods.
I'm a 'simmerer' because that's what works for me. Cool to see the opposite working so well for you. Congrats.
ReplyDeleteWhatever works, it's working well for you. Congrats.
ReplyDeleteJared is sooo hot....
