Iniquity Word Count Challenge

4/1/2014

52 Comments

 
If you follow me on Facebook, you may have seen that Amber Lynn Natusch challenged me to a word count competition today. We each wrote for 45 minutes to see how many words we could write. Sadly, I lost. (I know, you're not surprised.) I only wrote 473 words to her 1,100. But then we had another competition privately and she won again (shocker), but in 20 minutes I wrote 350 more words. I plan to write even more after I post this; I just promised people on Facebook that I would let you glimpse a little of what I wrote today. I can't show you everything because it's a HUGE plot point and I don't want to give it away.

Also, I've recently been called out for giving teasers to you. All I can say to that is I always give you fair warning that a teaser is coming. You're adults (well, mostly) and you can make a choice whether to read a teaser or not.  I leave it up to you. 

I know some of you will ask me for a release date. I don't have one, yet. When I do, I'll post it. I know a few of you will Big Ben me and tell me it's past "early 2014." Yes, it is. My word count is over 50K. That's where I am. I'm really excited to finish it. I seem to be past the hard part that was bogging me down. 

Anyway, I want to write more today so here's the teaser with Evie and Brennus. (I didn't write a scene with Reed today or I would post it instead. I know you've been getting a lot of Brennus teasers lately. All I can say to that is BANJAX.)  This teaser has not been edited, and as always, it is subject to change.

     “What are you talking about, Brennus?” I whisper.
     “Do ye remember when I told ye dat I saw me soul, Genevieve? Jus after ye changed me?”
     “I do, it was when I tried to kill you.”
     He grins. “Och, had ye tried ta kill me, I’d be gone. Ye wanted me ta change, and change I did,” Brennus says ruefully, and then he sobers. “I saw him again--me soul--after yer fire tore tru me.”
     “How?”
     “Me soul was ripped away from Sheol. He tried ta reunite wi’ me--become one once more, but I am still mostly undead, ye see?” I nod my head in understanding, and Brennus continues, “He gave me a message ta give ta ye.”
     “He did?” I ask, my eyes wide with surprise.
     “He did,” Brennus affirms with a nod. “He said ta say: ‘Tell her I’ve been waiting for her. Tell her I’ll know her by note.’”
