Goal for the next week

So, most of you know that I have already written my first book and have been diligently working on the second book of the series. I am currently on page 531 of the second book and still writing, however, the end is in sight.

Here is my goal: I want to finish book two before I go back to school on August 31st.

Now, this may seem a bit hasty on my part, but I think I can do it. Starting September I will be filling out my college transfer applications and dealing with financial aid and all that hoopla, so this is really the only time I will have to write until January.

Also, as an update on book one: I have sent the first chapter to agent Jodi Reamer (most known for her representation of Twilight's Stephenie Meyer). I eagerly await her rejection letter (ah I know I shouldn't think negatively, but I don't want to get my hopes up either). My biggest consolation? I consider my writing to be of a slightly higher quality than Ms. Meyer, so I don't think she'll be turned off by the actually writing in my book. Let's just hope that my first chapter grabs her then... well, my five fans all claimed that the first chapter hooked them, but you can't always trust friends, can you?

Anyway, I shall stay focused on my writing, and let's hope for the best!
