The first draft of Victor is finished! AND…it’s much shorter than I planned, but that’s what editing is for! Besides, while this is meant as a stand-alone, the book also serves to add depth and another side to what you see in Izzy and Lucas’ story following the second book.
Therefore! I was able to write with ease, and a little bit of magic–pun fully intended. I managed it the day before I start college after being nine years absent from it! It’s definitely one of the ooh-ahh moments for me. Editing is tedious, but you basically get to see what crap you wrote and if it’s any good. Hopefully, mine will be, or I might just cry. A lot. Tears and tears of hopeless disappointment.
Still, I managed it in two weeks. I wrote a full novel in two weeks. Boo-yeah.
Okay, gloating is over. I’m getting ready to start the first read through, so wish me luck!

I’m pretty sure there’s two of me. I think she keeps writing while I’m asleep and that’s how I manage to be so fast. I’d like to meet this evil, productive clone (twin?) of mine.

Goodness, a completed draft in two weeks? I bow to you!! May I ask how many words you’ve got? When I’d finished the draft for Rise of the Sparrows it was shorter than I had hoped, too, but as you said – that’s what the editing is for ^^ Good luck with it!

It was about 76K for this one. I was going for about 90K, but the story wrote shorter, so I’m planning to elaborate and add some more details along the way.

That’s how it went with mine. I was planning around 90K as well but had just over 70K when the first draft was completed. Hope the edit goes well! 🙂
