So I finished the rough draft of Assassin 2 yesterday. Huzzah! 😎
It clocks in at 86,000 words and change, and 35 chapters. By a rough draft, I do mean rough. My dialogue is stilted, my descriptions are boring, and the chapters get progressively shorter as they go along. Seriously, right now the last chapter isn’t even 1,000 words long (most of my chapters are at least 3,000 words).Â
Plus, my ending really sucks since I can’t exactly decide what to do with this one character. Should she be a cop? Thief? Another assassin? I’m still thinking about that.
But there’s sex and violence and lots of bad guys who get what’s coming to them. Even better, I’ve got most of the story down. Now, I have something to work with, instead of just a blank screen mocking me. Usually for me, it’s easier to revise and edit than write something from scratch.
But it’s done, and I’m taking a break this weekend. Wheezley and I will probably go see Hellboy 2 at some point, and A-Team DVDs and TBR pile, here I come! :ww:
What about you guys? Anyone got big plans this weekend?
