So, with Collide finished in its rough draft form and put to the side so I can get new eyes for it (not literally, obviously) I am about to begin a book tentatively titled By Its Thorns. I think that’ll change. But it’s the fourth Order of Solace book, and I am SUPER DUPER excited to be working on it. I actually plotted out the story eons ago, and I still really like the idea for it.
I’m also stoked because it seems I’ve managed to keep my 20 pgs a day habit, which means this book should flyyyyyyy along, fly along, barring issues with plotting or kids having days off from school, etc. I already know there are days off coming up (oy!) so if I could finish the rough draft of this before that all starts, I’d be in a very very good place. Editing and tweaking and polishing is easier done around interruptions than page count.
So, here I go. Beginning today, officially! Starting…now!

Ooooohhhhh I can’t wait. Promise I will write that letter to your editor soon! My kids are on vacation this week (none of this smattering here and there, nope, we get a WHOLE week). So, maybe next week.

Wow, 20 pages per day! I’ve always thought you were a fast writer but you’re moving into supersonic speeds now.
