Ok, still fighting off this flu-ey feeling-seriously feeling just go away, you're not invited. But I have managed to do another revision of chapter 8.
Here are some stats:
Chapters Revised: 8
Chapters Remaining: 14 (I think I can meet my December deadline, just need to keep going!)
Total Page Count: 493...hmmm same as yesterday and I did some MAJOR cutting in this chapter
Total Word Count: 146, 790....hmmmm more than yesterday. I swear I CUT!
Oh well. Now the good news is I get to work on chapter 9! Yay!
And because I had a moment last night where my brain went from fully functioning to temporary insanity, and I said I'd post a small excerpt, I'm going to do it.
So a little Snippet for you. My MC Lilliana is having a small flashback at her birthday party.
Sorry, snippet removed 2/14/10
Ok, there you go!
Ooh, I love kiss scenes!
ReplyDeleteVery romantic. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteOoo, lot's of passion there. I like. (And you're brave to post a piece of your book. I can't seem to find the courage...)
ReplyDeleteOoo very nice! Very vivid imagery. I can feel everything. Me likey mucho :)
ReplyDeleteThanks!This was a scene that was HEAVILY revised-the FNC really gave me a hard time over its original incarnation. I'm glad they did, because this is so much better. Thanks for the feedback:)
ReplyDeleteOh and Shannon, like I said, it was a moment of insanity that led to this, I'm not really that brave but hate to go back on my word.
ReplyDeleteThat's great, Frankie. You've really given Tristan a bigger role and made their relationship a very romantic one. Good job!
ReplyDeleteLOL. Don't you love those moments of insanity?
ReplyDeleteOh, AND--I'm giving you a blog award!!!!!!
I sadly don't know how to do links in comments, so come back to my blog for all the details.
Nice kissing scene! I hope your WIP is going well. Thanks for following my blog :)
ReplyDeleteAre you in publishing too? I'm a non-fic book publicist.
Thanks Joanne!!
ReplyDeleteOMG Shannon, you're awesome, thank you!
