Well, the first draft, anyway. Last night I got back to work on my WIP, John Dunn, Heart of a Zulu, and decided the only thing that needed doing was finishing it. So I did.
Now that doesn't mean in my rewrites I won't change it some. But the manuscript topped out at 118,400 words. And that's plenty long enough. Most every publisher I have researched caps their word count requirement at 120,000. A lot don't want any more than 100,000. Some even top off their word counts at 80,000.
So I really don't want it over 120,000, that's for sure. Now begins the revision stage. That will give me something to do while waiting for Melange to assign me an editor for the editing process of KIILLER OF KILLERS. Can't wait for that. I won't be idle,that's for sure.
