Finally found my groove. Sitting at 45k words today. This draft will be done in less than a week. Hooray!
P.S. You can always tell when I get toward the end of a book. My notes are becoming ever more melodramatic. Today's final beat: "They prepare themselves for death." Oh yeah...

Re-reading and lightly editing, because there are ALWAYS typos and sentences that could be tightened.

You're a writer when you write an emotional end with tears streaming down your face. Damn, guys. Good thing there'll be another book after this...

Just finished the second last chapter! One to go :D
It's been brutal, guys. I put my heroes (and myself) through the wringer. But I think you'll like the story. It's less steamy, but super heavy on action and feels.
If you enjoyed how the characters grew, you'll love this, I think...

33k words. This book is kicking my %&@$... But I love how the characters are shaping up. And we finally learn the reason WHY the Fae are so keen to abduct human kids :D

About 20k words into my first draft. As usual, writing this book to the wire! It's super exciting, though :D
