is the current word count of HEATSTROKE HEARTBEAT, with all longhand work transcribed. This doesn’t count the prologue novelette, which is currently around 14,000 words, and could possibly go longer. I definitely need at least 5-10K to wrap it up, but I now have all of March to do it, which is nice. (Although I’ll have to finish the newsletter before I get into it.)

Pretty boring post, but getting this transcription done before 3/1 feels like a big deal.


Currently listening: THE FAST RED ROAD: A PLAINSONG, by Stephen Graham Jones.
