With another NaNoWriMo beneath my belt I am pleased to announce that the next book in my Oliver & Jack series entitled Oliver & Jack: Out In The World, is 73K words done; I’ve written Oliver’s point of view in those words, because, as I determined early on, this particular story was about what happens to […]
NaNoWriMo 2015 – Winner!
I am a winner at this year’s NaNoWriMo, and I have a certificate to prove it! My validated word count was 55,916, but my end goal for November is 60K so I have some writing to do today. But that’s no great hardship, eh?
