Today's writing update:
Ahhh! Okay, I jumped off the deep end into writing, which means more words written in the manuscript and less updates! 

I'm chugging along, getting sooo close to a final first draft. I am averaging a little over 1,000 words a day and multiple hours spent on the manuscript every day. I've erased a lot, re-wrote a lot, and there will be more before it's done. But I am seeing the light. It's coming together, one word at a time.
