While waiting for feedback on vol 1 from betas, I crossed 200 pages on my first draft of vol 2 yesterday! 🤩 (I know that "page" is not a real length metric, but, hey, I got 200 of them!) #queerfantasy #lgbtbooks #amwriting #progressreport

A snippet of a screenshot from macOS pages with a WIP work that shows the page count, showing 203 pages and 66k words.
