Breaking Records

I broke my record of words per day for a rough draft. My previous record was 10k. Today, I made it to 12k. Here’s how it broke down:

The rough draft I worked on today was the prequel Daphne book. Tomorrow, after work, I’ll continue editing Stolen Property. I might be able to squeeze in some rough draft time on Daphne as I’m editing. That would allow me to add the Daphne book as a reader magnet as I publish the fourth Daphne Blazefire book.

Keeping my fingers crossed.
