Writing Update 

Hello! 

I just wanted to update everyone on the progress of my book. I also need to lavish praise on some of the people who have helped me through the writing and editing processes. 

First some good news: I’m currently 105,000 words into my first novel. The story is materializing, and I’m optimistic about completing it within the next few weeks. The editing stage may require a bit of time, but I’m almost done with the rough manuscript. I’m super excited, and I’m hopeful that many people will enjoy reading it. 

Secondly, I would like to thank my supporters and my amazing editor, Jared Norton. My brother has helped with continuity, tonal consistency, basic editing, stylistic decisions, and plot resolution. Basically, he’s provided invaluable feedback and advice. I’d also like to thank my girlfriend, Madison. She is working on the art for the novel’s cover and for promotional purposes. My family and friends (especially my friend Erin) have provided significant encouragement and support. Thanks!
