Note #43 – A Tiny Announcement

You guys.

Today, at 2:32 pm EDT, I wrote the last sentence of my second novel, The Date Square Dharma. Twenty eight chapters, 114,553 words, many cups of coffee and a whole lot of work, but there it is. A completed first draft.

I feel proud, excited, and tired, in that order.

There’s still tons of editing to do, there are covers to finalize, fonts to be chosen and a thousand other things that will take a couple of months to complete, but for right now, I’m going to go sit in the sunshine with Gavin and feel very pleased with myself.

P.

P.S. I can’t wait for you to read it…
