And thus time for...

THE WEEKLY WORD COUNT. /reverb

Extra special drumroll please...

Last week's word count: 80,015
This week's word count: 85,138
Word count for the week: 5,123

There's my word count goal for the book, and there's an END at the bottom.

*combines Dance of Joy with Snoopy Dance because I'm weird that way*

Now I get to edit it into something that doesn't suck.

I love editing. And no, that's not sarcasm, I really do.

I need to email the rest of this to my Writing Buddy. And I need to figure out how I'm going to post it for the Concrit Group.

I may create a new LJ for that purpose. *ponders*

*grins* Thanks. I'm basking in the glow right now, before diving into editing.

Whoo! That is definitely a major achievement, no matter how much editing it needs.

As for the concrit group, if it's already in chapters, you could just post it that way and let everyone look at each chapter individually. Although...well, yeah, that would be kind of a lot of posts.

I used the Early Terry Pratchett Model of Writing. No chapters, lots of scene breaks. I ... guess as part of the editing process, I'll figure out where the chapters go. Yeah. LOL

It's going to take lots of posts anyway, since LJ limits the number of words or characters per entry. Which is why I'm thinking of creating an LJ strictly for the Concrit Group.
