Don't Forget the Future #2
posted by voh 20:36, 18 June, 08
Another update. After the last post I thought I was done writing, but I can't stop, for some reason. I just wanted to update the story list with the new stories, to keep y'all in the loop and whatnot.
So here's the updated list :)
- Association (1041 words)
- Coffee (2062 words)
- Custard (2409 words)
- Free (1592 words)
- Frenzied (380 words)
- London (1615 words)
- Mumbles (767 words)
- Notebook (2257 words)
- Paris (866 words)
- Publisher (371 words)
- Quite the Fall (2953 words)
- Smoke Break (1501 words)
- Tidy (2356 words)
- The Eye of Avarron (6574 words)
These total a very, very nice total of 26744 words verified. Some of these still need a shitload of editing, so that number's bound to go up, but I'm not entirely done yet. There are a couple of stories I've written since I made that list, and here they are.
- The Sayville Lily (723 words)
- Told you So (1093 words)
- King of IM (1215 words)
- Hindsight (1156 words)
These tally up to 4187 words, so that makes for 30931 words. With editing, I expect that to rise to around 37 to 38.000 words.
I should say that I'm done writing for this book and I should get my ass in gear to edit it and get it ready for publishing, either through regular means or through self-publishing, but I'm still writing and loving it :D
So, what I'm going to be doing is write until the end of the month. If no additional stories come out of my pen, that's okay, I've got more than what I'd hoped for - far more. If another 5 stories come out, that'll confuse me but please me more. But by July, I will not add any new stories to Don't Forget the Future - they'll be saved for whatever comes next.
Liquid Ham was 146 pages, of which a lot were wasted by the poems and nonsense. This one will be 182 pages at the least, smack full of storilicious goodness.
Guh, I want to just skip forward to when it's done and I can hold one in my hands :)
If anyone knows anyone who's good at graphic design and might be interested in doing some design work for my book, let me know :)
Post a comment - keep it tidy!
