Means you’re more likely to meet them. It can be difficult to know when to push yourself to meet a goal and when to adjust it. 2021 is winding down and I’m looking back on my year and doing a progress check. My main New Year’s resolution was to publicly step into the world as […]

Is better than nothing. Yes, I’m still working through my edits of SEEDS OF POWER. Yes, it’s still exciting. But there were a few days during these past two weeks where I wrote different things because a new person or scene was in my head. I stopped thinking about restructuring SOP and wrote something new.

But shouldn’t control you. Knowing standard wordcount ranges for your genre is important to be marketable. Google it.
