julesjonesJust finished the first draft of Spindrift. :-) 51,000 words in the end, which is officially novel length by SFWA rules, although a fairly short novel by current publishing standards.
I will now leave it for an hour or two and then go through with the spellchecker and do a quick skim of the most recent bit for other typing errors before sending it to Alex for beta-reading. Then I'll think about whether to bounce the complete manuscript off another beta-reader before sending it to my editor, who has been muttering for the last two months about how she so much wants to see this story. :-)
