So I never finished my blog post, so I am combining these two into one big blog post. Sorry if that makes it confusing. But seriously look at the stats!
Start of Week: 56038
End of Week: 66635
Words Written: 10597
Nano Total: 26846
Goal Words: 30,000
Chapters for the week: 6
Hello My scripturients,
Another week in November down, another nearly 11k written. I don't know how I am pulling this off week to week. Each week so far I have been able to write a little more than the last, and that is with writing on fewer days... I don't really get it either. 
Start of Week: 66635

Chapters for the week: 5?
Scripturients,
It was a tough week. Between rehearsals going late into the night, and my car breaking down for four days, I was not a happy camper this week. Stress and anxiety was through the roof. But somehow I was still able to crank out 13k?  I don’t understand it guys. Like 40% of the time I feel like what I am writing is trash. But I guess we will know for sure in a few weeks when I begin edits. Right now the book is sitting at a whopping 497 pages… IT IS GOING TO BE OVER 500 PAGES. This is also at 5.5x 8.5 which is a bit bigger than my normal paperback, but it is also double spaced… even still it is going to be a HUGE book and I am both so excited and terrified by its size.  I will be doing some quick formatting and ordering a copy the minute I finish the book so I can begin read through and edits at the end of December. 
How big do you think the final copy will be? I keep thinking that not enough is happening?? This book is a learning curve that is for sure!

After reading "All the Light We Cannot See", I realized that it can also have its movie version. The story is also perfect for big screen that's why I am humbly asking movie producers to come and think of it. The story itself was a bomb. We also received positive reviews from the book and they were also demanding for the same thing. Kudos to Mr. Anthony Doerr for coming up with this wonderful story! I am just so happy to have read it already.

Just finished reading Frituals and LOVED it. Loved the characters, loved the story, can't wait for the next one. However, the lack of correct punctuation and frequent changes in verb tenses gave me whiplash while trying to read. I will definitely read your next book, but I am hoping that you can stick to ONE verb tense, and have more editing done. Keep up the excellent writing!
