Draft one, all printed. Time to cut out a bunch of stuff!
Fishsticks final word count:106,236
I’M DONE WITH THE FIRST DRAFT
edit: I pulled up my logged time for it… 108 hrs and 35 mins since last July! Holy crap.
The epilogue has been finished (save for the ending paragraph/final line), the ending battle has been outlined. I probably have 2.5k left to write.
This ends today.
WISH ME LUCK
I CLOSED THE GAP
ALL I HAVE LEFT TO WRITE IS THE ENDING/EPILOGUE
It’s 101,300 words right now but WHATEVEr. IT’S ALMOST DONE
The demon dug its hooves into the roof of the car, but it didn’t quite make a dent. It wasn’t all that heavy or tough, but it also wasn’t a quitter.
The Estate was just up ahead; we came to the brick wall on our left, and Theo gunned the car harder. He and Lauriette whooped while my mom, Limerick, the jackalope, and I held on for dear life.
“How are we getting rid of this thing, again?” I yelled, hoping someone would hear me over the engine, tires, and the frightened cries of the demon.
i feel bad for the jackalope now
writing on cold medicine was probably not my brightest idea.

Fishsticks is now at 83,337 words and is speeding right into the climax!
For context, the compiled pdf is 376 pages long, and would be roughly 334 paperback novel pages.
The jackalope scene was fun to write. Tomorrow: the Grim Reaper!
Me: salmon is getting punched by a jackalope rn
do you ever sometimes just stop
and go “what am I writing”
Cori: …
Fishsticks is now at 79,374 words… I intend to write the ending today, then go back and fill in my two gaps. I’m projecting 90k-ish to finish, then I’ll go back and trim it to 75k… whew…
I also came up with a(nother) new novel idea yesterday, which makes me mad. I need to finish this current book so that I can write all 30+ other books that I want to!
