– FINISHING (19 October): I finished the second short story in the eight book series I have planned for Razor’s Edge. 3733 words. I might tweak it a little to tighten up some things (like I’ve been doing with book one) so that count could go up or down (though …
I take no credit for this one and just heard about it myself. An editor at Changeling Press passed it on to the authors and thus I’m passing it on to you (I needed the content anyway :P). It’s even Halloween-flavored. Thanks to Rebecca Johnson for sharing this great technique. …
