2000 more words down, but it’s done, making chapter 25 the single longest chapter from either of these two books at a whopping 7.5k. Not sure how close it’ll stay to that number by the time I’m done editing, but regardless it’s a hefty one. #booksky

Got a little more than a thousand words down for the next chapter today, but I was only writing for a few hours so that pace isn’t terrible #booksky

I’m not going to lie, I just spent two hours trying to write the final sentence of this chapter, and I’m only stopping with what I have because I think spending any more time on it might actually drive me insane #booksky

Yeah, I got chapter 20 done today, even though it was a little bit more difficult than the last few. It’s definetly the shortest one so far, so that was nice after the meatier ones before it. #booksky

Just got chapter 19 done for book 2, with a total of 4780 words (3356 in a bit over four hours today), and honestly, I think I might be able to get the next one done in one go tomorrow since it’s a good bit shorter than the last bunch #booksky

the truth is that this isn't a theocracy and jesus isn't my fucking king
Chip Roy: "The truth is the marxist, radicals, and Islamists the Democratic Party promoted this weekend, they cannot handle the truth. The truth is that there is a king and that king is Jesus. And the president has been willing to say it, & Charlie Kirk was willing to say it & he got killed for it."

I only wrote a little more than 6000 words over the last three days since my brain and body were fighting me on Sunday and Monday, but chapter 13 is done. Total word count as of now for book 2 is a clean 68,700, but that’s with the rest of the chapters’ basic structures and info included #booksky

Just finished chapter 12 for the end of the week. I wrote a bit less than 5000 words today and yesterday, so with the 3500ish that I got done on Monday and Tuesday, that brings it up to right under 8500 words in 4 days. Now that ain’t half bad #booksky
