Yeah, I'm finally on chapter 15!!!!
I had a really great meeting with the FNC today sans Sara who is still recovering from her honeymoon. And so far, aside from a few minor things, everything sounds good, which is a relief! I also got back some more positive feedback from Joanne on chapters 1-12. But the real question is-how do chapters 13 and 14 stand up to the rest of them? Because man did I struggle through those two!
Those were hard chapters to write because they take place over winter break and Lilliana is left without her friends, her boyfriend, her classes etc and they are two very introspective chapters where she is searching for something...and a lot of snow was involved. But things picked up again and got exciting at the end of chapter 14 and now 15 should prove to be a fun chapter to write now that school is back in session:-)
The page count was begining to get out of control so I pushed back my margins a bit...so my page count will look like it's lower for that reason, but it's not...the word count gives it away.
Chapter: 15
Word Count: 96,855
Page Count: 319
Awesome! I was brainstorming some ideas to encourage the pacing of your book some more.

Hear me out. There are these dinosaurs....and they have LASER GUNS on their backs. Why do they have guns? Read the next series in the book to find out! (Do I smell an instant cash cow?)
You can have that idea for free. Keep the updates coming!
HAAHAHAHAHAHA! I think I love you.
