I'm 2,300 words away from hitting 50,000 words in this draft and I think I might be able to get there by the end of this week??? I have a busy couple of days ahead but posting this here for accountability because I'd really like to make it happen!

My first drafts usually wind up around 80k words but this one is looking like it will land at 60k (for an adult thriller), which means I'll be ADDING during revisions rather than SLASHING FURIOUSLY and this is WEIRD FOR ME.

My favorite thing about writing thrillers is that point around the 40k-word mark when I scream “WHAT IF NONE OF THIS MAKES ANY SENSE WHATSOEVER???” and splay on the floor 😁

So thrilled to announce that Under the Surface will be published in Poland! I can’t wait to welcome Polish readers to this heart-wrenching adventure in the Paris catacombs, and to see my words translated to Polish for the first time. 🥹

I've seen some comments that established authors are struggling recently to sell on proposal. If this has happened to you, I'd love to chat for an article for the Hot Sheet ... please comment or DM! I'd welcome perspectives from other publishing professionals too.
