This picture actually features a beginning as well as a middle and an end:

The top notebook (as well as the draft beneath it) contains my revisions for The Price of Mercy. I’m just over halfway through the rewrite/revision process, judging by total page count. Of course, I still have a lot of work ahead, but I hope I’ll be able to start querying in January. It’s definitely a stronger story now than when I initially queried it a couple of years ago (I still don’t know what I was thinking then).
But the bottom notebook holds a brand new short story that I started working on late yesterday afternoon. It’s not as fluffy as my usual work, but I hope it’s good.
Don’t forget to stop by Charnele’s blog and check out her beginnings!
