I'm really enjoying rewriting my 4th novel. I added 2,562 words to the second draft today, despite spending 40 minutes on one paragraph! The main character has such a sardonic voice. She's great fun to write.

Ough I forgot how much I love the characters and setting of "The Strings of Willis Manor"
Even just looking over it again has given me such joy
