It’s a novel!

Genesis Earth is now officially over 50,000 words.  That means, by most standards, that it is officially novel length.

What’s more, I’m on the verge of finishing it.  I’m only about 2,000 words from the ending, and despite the fact that this story has hung me up so many times (including right now, in the last chapter), it’s exciting to think that it’s almost complete.  When it’s done, it will be the second novel that I’ve followed through to the very end.  Excellent!

Now, I need a group of first readers.  I’m looking for friends who are willing to read the whole thing (it’s only about 200 pages double spaced), write down their comments, and be honest in their reactions to the story.  The comments need to be written (preferably electronically) because I won’t start the rewrite for a few months.

If you want to be one of my first readers, please drop me a line or post a comment here.  I’ll get in contact with you.
