This is what 15,000 words and 51 pages looks like…

Go on, writer, blissed out of your ever-loving mind with a delightful heating pad on your back!
Boom! 15,933 words, 51 pages, and a fully drafted first chapter! Well…”fully” in the sense that I’m not going to seek out new sources of material to add to the chapter. Tomorrow, V and I are going to sit down with scissors, markers, and tape to put this thing into a cogent order. Right now it’s a glorified annotated bibliography, complete with reference citations and everything. It’s a bit of a horror.
That’s all I can share for today because I’m already late for my evening plans with friends. More later!

Congratulations! This should be your real prize! So happy for you!!!!!!!
Hehehe, thanks Kathy. Tomorrow, I pay the “favor” forward to some other bloggers, lol. 🙂 (Seriously, thanks, though because I have noticed an increase in traffic! :))
WOOHOOO!!!!!!! So proud of you, my friend. I wish I was there to celebrate with you. 🙂
Thank you! What are you talking about? You’re here in spirit! 😀
Many congrats!
Thanks, Renee! As a fellow writer, I’m sure you can appreciate the brutality of coming up with a high page count.
Have yourself a cosmo or strawberry daiquiri! You deserve a tasty liquid reward!
I had a glass of delicious red wine! 😀 Maybe I’ll have a cosmo tomorrow night, too…. 😉
Congrats! Keep up the great work writing.
