UglyBob Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share #11 Posted June 23, 2015 What is the title of this future NYT#1BS? The working title is "Killing Karma". Looks like it's going to stick, but I doubt we're lokking at a best seller here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingtermite Posted June 23, 2015 Share #12 Posted June 23, 2015 The first draft of my first novel is DONE!!! Now the real work starts... How long was the final first version before editing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UglyBob Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share #13 Posted June 23, 2015 How long was the final first version before editing?24 chapters and around 55,000 words. I know there's at least one chapter that needs to be split in two and expanded, and a couple more gaps to fill. The final will likely be in the neighborhood of 60,000 words. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not if you don't have some good editors corrrecting yor speling eroors. You need to give us the jacket version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't written the jacket text yet. That's a challenge I'll be facing when I get back into town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still several weeks away from the end of my first draft, if nothing goes wrong. The editing and rewriting is going to be a lot of work.
