First Draft Done?

The Motherhood Mandate first draft clocked in at 102,406 words, written in just over eight weeks. I averaged just over 12,000 words per week as I pushed myself beyond what I thought was physically possible.

I'm emotionally exhausted but so damn proud of myself. There will be time for editing this puppy down so that my beta readers can give me their incredibly important feedback, working with my cover designer and blurb writers and getting ready to launch this baby on April 18, 2024.

I want to express my undying thanks to my husband for the never-ending offer of coffee, my daughter for letting me ramble, my Cafe Crew who hung out with me in VR and gave me the encouragement that I needed to lean in and get this puppy done, and to Renji Bijoy who created the Immersed app.
