I pushed past 60,000 words in my rewrite of Between Hell and a Hard Place yesterday. Right now, I'm struggling with getting a car out of the police impound lot but I'm very pleased with the second draft so far.
I'm really glad I added Otis Reed and Nick Ambrose and took out the hacker character from the first draft. The Parker family (the Brissette family in the first draft) is much more sordid. I'm not sure that I'm not changing who the killer is at this point. I only have five or six chapters of old material to edit/adapt but there are some new things I have to add. The old draft was 75,000 words and I'm thinking this one is going to be around 80,0000.
I'm going to shoot for having this draft completed by Wednesday but we'll see. The weather has been really nice lately so it's hard to stay inside.
