October Update

Did September really go by without an update on here! What? That's crazy.

Well, although I continue to struggle to find high quality time for writing, rewriting and editing, I am making good progress and am excited about how the book is coming together right now. There are still days of writer's block and days, sadly, when I get no work done on the book. That, obviously has to change if I want to reach my goal of a final draft by the end of December!!

My wife is amazing. She does overtime with the kids when I'm home just to give me some quiet, quality time to work. Thanks Cara!

I have also been in contact with several self-publishing companies. I haven't fully decided which company I'll go with. It's a big decision that can have a big impact on the future of my book, so I don't want to rush into anything.

The book itself is coming along well. The rewriting/editing is a little more challenging than I expected, but some of the characters are getting deeper and more interesting as I go along and I've been adding a lot more vividness and action to the writing. I am very excited to finish it and have a final manuscript ready for publishing. I can't wait!

That being said, I'd better get back to work on actually writing!
Thanks for reading! Keep me in your prayers as I keep working on this.
