My writing has slowed since my wife gave birth to twins before Christmas. But I've still managed to break the 16,000 word mark on the third book in my trilogy.

This pass on #1 is done.

27 chapters.  96,679 words.

Next, to get it to betas, and move on to tighten #2 for continuity, which should move much faster.

After an almost pathetic 1k I rallied strong at the end of the day and gutted out a 6k win.

Just fired another short off, now back to the last minute preparations before submitting the novella.  When that's off to the slush-tub, I will have a day of Doctor Who, a beer, and resume the novel.

Through pass on the first 16 chapters of #2.  That was faster than expected; one more night should finish it.

My third book is up to 19,330 words now. It still feels strange to be writing the final book of my trilogy when the first only came out in November.

At one of my potential ending points.  Gonna finish up with the second potential end point before I declare the move and go back for edits and plot holes.
