November was a busy month for me, tippety typing a novel in just 30 days. Well to be honest, it was typing 50,000 words in 30 days, which I did. A novel – I don’t exactly have yet.
It was a fun experience, and I’m glad to have participated (and won) the month, but my novel still needs quite a bit more work (and words) before I can publish for all the world to see.
My goal is to start fixing it up in January and have it to my editor by mid February (or earlier if I can managed it.) If all goes well, it will probably be ready for sale by March 2013. That’s the aim anyway.
I had set out to write an erotic romance, but in the end the erotic parts became few and far between, and it turned into a regular ol’ romance with a few steamy sex scenes. A completely different direction than I was originally going.
It’s still set in the 1940’s, and still has fantasy elements. But now the direction I’ve gone has made it a stronger novel with a better plot, and so I’m happy with my choice to cut back on the sex.
I can’t wait to get my first novel out there for you all to read. I’m really excited about it.
I’ll keep you updated on its progress.
All the best,
Tabs xx
