So, I’m currently at 25,407 words, which means I’m very far behind. And this being Thanksgiving week, I may not have enough time to finish all 50,000 words and get all my other stuff done.

But, the good thing is, I like the story. It’s become a kind of prequel to a graphic novel project I’ve jotted down on my to-do list, which means that I’ll have a lot of material to draw from when I’m ready to develop that particular project.

Unfortunately, this month-long hobby has taken up most of my free time, which means the graphic novel development has taken a back seat this month, but I do have an idea or two that I’ve been tossing around that I’d like to start writing as soon as I’ve finished this novel. In the meantime, I’ve got to get more Inkspills up.

As far as the novel is concerned, the goal is to finish it – even if it takes past November – edit it, then submit it to a publisher and wait for the results. If all else fails, I’ll self-publish it. Whatever happens, I’m excited to reach the end and have it read, because this, combined with the story that follows, it is something I get excited thinking about and can’t wait to “find out” what happens next.
