Wow, I finished this rewrite in seventeen days. Seventeen days! Hard to believe it’s only been that long. I hope the quality of this work went up in that time. I still feel like I need to run through and proofread it, make sure that the language flows well and the dialogue isn’t stilted.<\/p>\n In the process of writing this draft, I added or deleted 37,159 words from the previous draft. Going by the wordcount of the previous draft, 51.98% of the text changed.<\/p>\n Now I need to start submitting this book. It’s going to be kind of hard–I’m not sure whether it’s YA or not. On the one hand, the main characters are older teenagers and experience a lot of personal growth over the course of the novel. On the other hand, the (pseudo)science is a little dense, and the prose isn’t…well, it doesn’t read like most of the YA that I’ve read.<\/p>\n Well, I guess the only thing to do is shop it around and see who picks it up. In the meantime, I’m going to put everything I have into finishing Bringing Stella Home<\/em>. The 2.0 draft of that novel is going to be AWESOME!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" That’s right!\u00a0 Here are the stats: ms pages: 269 words: 74,687 file size: 525 KB chapters: 16, prologue & epilogue start date: 8 July 2009 end date: 25 July 2009 Wow, I finished this rewrite in seventeen days.
