Word Count, Vol.3: 91,410! Woohoo, I’ve passed that the 90k “target!” Thanks to All Who Bought Echo! And BIG THANKS to Melissa, Barbara, Ian, Lorna, [anonymous], Lisa, Meg, Matt, Bobby, F.T., Alice Smith, Leslie Coop, Richard, Shauna, Sydney, Pam, Jessica and now Angela for posting AMAZING reviews on Amazon!!! Ashley too for the 5 star on Nook!
News: So, funny story. Was at the gym this morning, hit the bottom of a squat and rrrrRRRIIP! I laughed and kept going, but my shorts kept ripping. Now I’m secure enough in my manliness to admit that I wear Me Undies (the BEST underwear currently sold, prevents all kinds of crass stickiness) of all wacky designs—christmas, tropical, purple, magenta—but I’m definitely not manly enough to show em off through the crack of the ever-widening rip in my shorts! So I went home, changed up, and finished up my workout. Gotta go to target for some more shorts now.
Anyways, volume 3 is definitely a monster. I was hoping to have been done with it by now, as it has been six months since Echo Volume 2 and my personal goal is to publish every six months, but at least I hit the 90k mark and I’m writing the climax. Still got a LOT of work to do. When I’m finished drafting, I figure I’ll take two solid months to edit the manuscript to make sure it flows like I want it to. As said before, this has every element I originally envisioned in the world of Echo, so I want to make sure I get it right. So! Off to stretch a bit, then to target for some more shorts! If you are a writer, then I wish you inspired drafting and insightful editing!!!

How exciting, good for you! Not the shorts exposing your undies to the world, the book. 😉 It’s such a thrill when you get to the point of revision and editing.

Thank You! Haha! My method is I edit as I go, usually a chapter or two per day, but yes, there is a point where things flow and lock into place, and that point is awesome!

And here when I first read it, I thought “rriipp” meant something else. That would stink, lol!

Haha! Gym’s are already loud and they tend to stink…now I wonder if that’s on purpose as camouflage!

Not even the best comedians are free of that problem…best thing I guess is to apologize and get back to having fun while the others are still muttering spitefully, haha!

lol is your gym a strip club too? Showing off your underwear in public is not a good thing unless you are a stripper.
