Getting Closer

Knocked off two chapters and added a decent amount to the word count. I think breaking 60k will feel pretty good. I know I've got my work cut out for me when I start the rewrite. Seems that every time I open the file and start typing I discover things that I'll have to go back and fix. There are some major issues (like an entire King Arthur subplot that vanishes about halfway in -- it involves onions and captivity) and a lot of minor stuff. I have a page at the end of the draft where I keep notes on these future fixes.

First draft word count a/o today: 59239

So this is pretty cool. The Kindle Press team notified me that Amazon is running a promo for Ghost Star via Science Fiction and Fantasy Kindle book deals. Yay! The promotion is in the US marketplace and the book will be on sale for $0.99 starting 7/1/19 and running through 7/31/19.

In semi-related news, Ghost Star has been a top 90 bestseller in Science Fiction (Kindle Store) for the past several weeks and currently ranks at #61. Double yay!
