Congrats!
That’s some serious writing speed. What’s your average word count per hour? Did you plot out the book/scenes before you started writing them?
Also, I want to jump into reading your books, where’s the best place to start?
Thanks! I’m not really sure what my word count per hour is, since I typically get interrupted a lot during the day, so I’ve taught myself to write in little 100 to 200 word chunks in time available. If I have an open block of time, I can usually do 1400 to 2500 words in an hour, but that doesn’t happen all that often, alas. 🙂
I always make an outline before I write a book – usually about 2 or 3,000 words long.
The first book in all of my series is free – CHILD OF THE GHOSTS or FROSTBORN: THE FIRST QUEST would probably be good places to start.
That is mindboggling writing velocity! Wasn’t the last frostborn book just a couple of months ago ? 😮
It was – first week of March, I think.
Just takes a lot of practice. Also not watching much TV. 🙂
