Hi readers,
Look at that, my title is relevant to the post. Another draft of Out of Light is done, coming in at ~110k words. Before you get too excited, I have to do this at least two more times.
Who am I kidding, get excited. I sure as hell am.

Second Draft? Done.
War of the Sisters, book 1, draft 2 is now done.
Starting words: 87,299
Ending Words: 82,489
I swear I had lost more than that, either that or I somehow gained more words overnight .-.
I know there is some stuff I’m going to need to add just based on the feedback I’ve gotten already but, my beta readers have it, and I will wait till they’re finished with it to start a third pass to clean up any plot holes, inconsistencies, whatnot. In the meantime, I’m going to rest, read, and learn.
Thanks for reading!

Who needs titles anyway, really?
I should save this update for next week, but I’m not gonna. Draft 2 of WOTS1 is nearly done. I’m at Chapter 44 of 51 for edits. (Which right now is about 10k words right now, but it will probably shorten.)
I have lost nearly 10k words, just as I thought. Unless I add something drastic in the upcoming chapters. (Which I very well might, I don’t know yet.)
After this, I absolutely must take a break before I go back over it for a third pass. I was originally going to jump right into WOTS2’s second draft but I think that’s making it harder to write book 1 because I’m remembering things from book two and forgetting they haven’t happened yet in book one so need to be explained.
Oh, and I still need two titles. But who even uses those? .-.
NaNoWriMo2016, WotS2, The End
Well, another year, another NaNo and I’m calling it done for this year.
The rewrite of WotS2 ended today, at 122k words. I’m letting 1 and 2 rest until January when I begin another read through/edit and possibly combine 1 and 2 into one book, named War of the Sisters.
We’ll see how it goes. Thanks for reading everyone!
(it’s supposed to be tiny, I haven’t figured out text size yet, apparently)
