A better judge of progress and 19 & 20

November 8, 2010 By Clinton Leave a Comment

The other night I finished Chapter 19. Short. And tonight I finished Chapter 20. Not so short.

I realized yesterday that updating that the chapters are finished might not be a good way to indicate the progress of the novel. After all, a chapter could equal out to be one page, for all anyone knows.

With the finishing of Chapter 20, the novel comes in (as of today) at 47,970 words. That’s past the ceiling which designates a story as a novella and propels the novel in to being a… well… novel.

Heading on vacation with the wife in a couple of days. I made a promise I would take a break from late night writing and relax. So after Wednesday night I’ll again pick up the progress of the novel, that’ll either be on Sunday or Monday evening.

Sleep calls!
