I am so sorry that I didn’t post this earlier today. It’s just been the weekend from hell. But I took about two hours today so that I could edit AND schedule the last four chapters. So we are ready to go for the next week and a half. All I have to do is write the little post that actually gets emailed to you guys. I’m writing this one now and then I’ll schedule the rest tomorrow. I have to go eat dinner and work on my paper.

Chapter Sixteen 

I’m going to come back later with news on Nanowrimo.

Hey! This is a bit later than I like to post, but I forgot that I had a dentist appointment early this morning and then I woke  up too late — just one of those annoying days.

Anyway, here is Chapter Fifteen. We have four chapters left before the first book is done. I can’t believe how close we are to the end 😛

On the status of Counting Stars, I’ve been posting updates over at my blog. If you’re following it, you know I recently decided to discard my first draft. I was only about four chapters in, so it’s not a bad thing. I’ve discarded much longer first drafts (Mad World went through five drafts before I got anywhere close). I re-outlined the story and I hope to still finish it on time since I discarded a lot of the subplots that was dragging me down when I wrote it.  The blog is really the best place to get my semi-daily writing updates if you’re interested.

I’m so excited to be posting this chapter — everything has been pushing towards this chapter, and it’s a crazy roller coaster. But I also like that I didn’t leave you with a tremendous cliffhanger either for the next four days. I can’t believe how fast these few weeks are going!

Chapter Thirteen

November 7, 2018

So Chapter 11 went live at 7 am this morning, and I forgot to post about it. I don’t have any good excuses —  I was home all day and in front of a computer. I’ve just been overwhelmed with getting back on track after my awful cold. I’m still not over it – but today was better than yesterday.

Anyway, Chapter 11 is posted 🙂

On the NaNoWriMo front, if you’re following my blog, you know I’m getting off to a rough start thanks to my cold. I’m hoping to pick up some steam this weekend and make up for lost time.

Hey, this is just a quick update to let you know I have started blogging and tweeting about NaNoWriMo and Counting Stars. You can follow it on my blog, Dear Isobel. You can sign to subscribe to updates there — I won’t be annoying you here every time I post.

I also fixed the chapters listing at Mad World. I did a thing behind the scenes that messed it up, but we’re good now.
