I realize I haven't been over here in almost two weeks, and I promise you there will be a WIPpet Wednesday tomorrow (scheduling the post today =p).

Getting back into it
I have not worked on FOR BY GRACE since last Monday. Oh. My. God! It's insane! I had one whirlwind of a week between class assignments and extra events.

One up, One down
I finished writing chapter 4 of the super secret project that's not so secret yesterday. It took longer than I expected and the chapter itself is a bit shorter than I thought it would be (my guess is that'll change in edits), but it is finished for the first draft. This chapter was incredibly intense … Continue reading One up, One down
Devil’s Advocate
Wrote about 8k words today! My original goal was 5k and I upped it to 10k. I'm satisfied and taking the rest of the night off. This project is turning out to be amazing! I'm so excited for it! In 2,000 more words, I'll be a quarter of the way through my original plot (always … Continue reading Devil’s Advocate
