Underway

The Drop: Season Three is off and running. I started late last week and wrote the first few chapters. I’d been working on some back story and characters, which is now all coming together in novel form. I like the first bit so far, which is a good sign. It’s also a different approach than I took to writing the first two novels, in that I came up with an idea I wanted to try. Let’s see if it works. What is that idea, you say? Maybe I’ll tell you later. Or maybe I won’t. I’m curious to see if people figure out what I’m doing and I’m a little reluctant to just straight up point it out. Ah, the mystery. Other than that, though, what are my plans and timing on this book? I’d like to say I’ll have it done by the end of the year. That’s two-and-a-half months from here, just over ten weeks. If I write every weekday and Saturday, which is unlikely given the upcoming holidays, I’ll probably come close if I get in a thousand words per day. That would put me at only 60k words, though, and my standard for these books is 75k. I don’t know, maybe I can get there. That would be nice since then I could get the book out by early February after editing (several times) and formatting. But enough blogging. Time to write a book.
