I’m very excited to announce that I just hit my word count goal for my second book! When I started writing my second book, I set a goal of 80,000 written words. I’ve blogged about setting writing goals before. It’s a goal to keep me motivated, but it’s not a target that must be met. If the story could be told at 50,000, 60,000, or 100,00… then, so be it! But it is exciting to actually meet that target I set months ago. I’m not finished with this story yet. I’m very close. I should be finished writing the first draft of the manuscript in the next few days. Not sure where I’ll end up as a final word count. But today, I’m excited to have reached my target (now I’ve exceeded it)!

Thanks Peggy! I’m getting ready to send this novel to the editor. So hopefully by February I’ll have two books out there to promote.: Which of course was my master plan all along. 🙂
