If you all read my previous post just EIGHT DAYS AGO, I said I had finished the first and second books of my series pretty quickly, and had started on the 3rd that night. IN EIGHT DAYS, I just finished the third- a whopping 281 page, 74,000 word novel!
I can't believe it! This is crazy! I just keep writing and writing!

And it makes me sad because the series ends with the fourth, but I'll be writing a special edition bonus book as the fifth. And then I'm done with these characters! ACK!

Holy moly! I'm like on a special kind of high right now so sorry if I'm all over the place. My new birth control pill isn't helping things either, LOL.


Right now, I plan to just write the first chapter or two, since it continues off the surprise ending of the 3rd, then just put a few points as to where I want the plot to go, and then I won't touch the fourth for awhile. I want to take a break from them and work on my werewolf series for a bit. Then I can come back with a fresh mind and read over the first three, revise and add in if needed, then start the fourth back up :)

I hope this helps motivate you to keep writing! AW has been a help for me to keep going, so I hope I can help you too!

Pretty much! When work is slow, I'll write! (I'm so bad). Then I do more after I have supper and study a bit before bed.

Holy damn on a cr*p stick! 281 pages in eight days?
That's mighty impressive.
And here's me having taken a measly 4 years to finish my first one:roll:

Aw thanks :) Yeah I just got on a roll and once I thought of all the plot points, the words just came out. And I'm bad, but I had planned to work on another series, but I just couldn't bring myself to write in it. I just wanted to go back to my current one, and since then I've gotten about 240 pages down in my 4th novel. Argh! But that one will be much longer as it's the last, so I'm not ready to be done yet. I'm taking my time. LOL.

I hope this all gives inspiration to everyone that clicks this thread :)

Math tells me that you must have written more than 9,000 words per day, on average. Crazy. What genre? Do you plan on seeking critique in one of the SYW areas?
