You may have noticed the little potato writer at the top of this blog before, steadily plugging away at what we can presume to be a novel. He's got a word count going, and an obvious goal. Well, that's me! I literally count my writing by words, and never before have I reached such an auspicious number. 100,000? That's a full-length young adult or adult novel. And since I am choosing to ignore age barriers here (after all, I read books marketed for children and I believe they could be marketed for adults as well. Why must we discriminate by age?), that's a really big book! (For me).
However, the novel is far from finished. Well, not very far, as I am nearing the conclusion. But it'll probably take me at least another month to finish. Just in time to print it out over Thanksgiving break.
