I just finished writing the first draft of DEAR READER. I read dozens of books and analyzed ten of thousands of pages to create a working manuscript. It took quite a bit longer than expected because the book is quite a bit longer than expected: 411 pages, 124,000 words. (By contrast my previous book was 249 pages/82,000 words)

What happens now? Well there's a second and a third draft, each faster than the last. I'm going to send out an update next week about how I revise, it might be useful to anyone who ever considers writing (it sure would have been useful to me!) Then there's the actual production, which won't take long at all.

I can't believe I pulled this off. (If I hadn't written several books before, though, I would never have been able to). Thank you all so much for making this happen.
