D - Dogs of War

D is for what else? Dogs of War, my NaNo novels from 2011 and 2012. I still need to finish the first edit of Dogs of War and need to finish the first draft of Dogs of War: Infiltration (BTW, the second book's title was changed from Dogs of War: Havoc). My beta readers were expecting to have Dogs of War by the end of December. I had planned to finish Infiltration by the end of January. Why are they not done, yet? See yesterday's "C" post for all the explanation you need. Gold medal, baby!

NaNoWriMo Winner... Again!

November is not over yet, but I have officially won NaNoWriMo for a second year in a row. Two for two! Next year, three for three. I now have 50,111 words in my official count. My novel is nowhere near complete. It looks like this one will be closer to 65-70,000 words before it's done. But that doesn't matter right now, because I won!!! I'll keep writing on this one while editing the first one to get it ready for publishing as an ebook. I already have a few people asking to read last year's novel. If you are interested, send me an email at this link and when I get it properly formatted, I'll send you a link to the ebook. This is a limited offer available only to those reading this blog and other close friends. Beyond that, there will be a charge for the book. I don't know how much yet. If you get a free copy and still want to support a starving writer, you will of course be welcome to purchase a copy. (Shameless plug)

Oh, and this year's novel title has changed. It is no longer Dogs of War: Havoc! It is now Dogs of War: Infiltration. Next year will be Dogs of War: Havoc! The trilogy may end up with a fourth book if I don't stop coming up with ideas and plot points don't stop ambushing me when I'm not expecting it. Characters thought dead really need to stay dead.
