Chapter 2 Done!

I love the quotes! Great job everyone! Hooray! I'm keeping an archive of all the quotes, by the way, and some day I'll post a top ten list.

Chapter two is now complete! I now have 6000 words written, which means I am 10% - 12% finished! Maybe I shouldn't be counting, but it is something to "keep my editor distracted" as Jeanette Ingold said in her workshop presentation on when to write and when to edit.

Way to go! Your chapters must be much longer than mine, which are about 2,000 words, or about 5-6 pages long. But, then, my book is middle grade and yours is definitely more YA. So, good work, girl! Keep it up. I'm reminded of Dori in Finding Nemo--Just keep swimming, just keep swimming.

I've been working hard, too. When we had the conference I was just finished with chapter 6--I'm on page 2 of chapter 10 now, in which inklings become apparent of an international assassination plot.
