Working hard on the third draft. I'm about 200 pages into my almost 500 page manuscript. I spent some time on the deck tonight smoking a cigar and doing some more editing. The stuff I'm reading now I wrote about a year ago, and it still seems to be holding up. I do need to amp up the conflict, but I like what I have so far. My goal is to finish this third draft by the end of May. I'm meeting up with my writing coach in June, and I want to have something I'm proud of to show her.
My previous coach, Jerry Cleaver, was great, but unfortunately he passed away. He was a great man and I'm sorry I didn't have more time with him. I'm sure all who knew him, especially his family, agree. He was a great soul.
My new coach is Mary Carter. I haven't met with her yet, she's taking over for Jerry. My first meeting will be June 11th, and I'm excited to start this new chapter with her as my coach. I'm sure she'll do great.
Oh well, time to get back to it. A writer never quits!
