I kind of need you to meet this goal by September 24th for my own faith in writing!! This is such a huge feat, what you've already accomplished is impressive, and you are so close to finishing it. I can't even imagine the rush or sense of gratitude that will meet you at the end of this endeavor. Get the thing done!

As a fellow writer, I bow down to your discipline and persistence. Having a schedule tracker is enormously helpful. For me, it was a godsend. Benchmarks and milestones are an encouragement to see what you have done and what's left - which is less than when you started! LOL I applaud your ability to clarify what is a priority, what can wait and allowing all of us into your process. I cannot wait to read the finished manuscript!

You-go-girl! We're cheering you on to your birthday and the full realization of this glorious project. XO

Just read some of your notes and posts, I really like your style of writing. It has inspired me to take a more informal approach. I also think might change the approach to my publication in general. Anyway I digress, I just wanted to say keep going your doing amazing and you are inspirational.

Thanks Vas!!

On May 16 I realized the plot needed to be reworked so I ended up having to delete a bunch of scenes 🥴. It happens sometimes. But I think I can use some of those scenes in later books in the series so hopefully not a total loss.

Good luck Noor! Don't worry too much about word count, or self imposed deadlines, but whether your story has heart and velocity! You can do it! :)

The very best of luck to you, Noor. I think that you will smash your target, the rate that you’re going. It will be really lovely to hear that you have done this. I’m doing complicated yoga moves, by crossing everything for you to write the 40K extra words!
