My stars! I am done with the full novel 83K words. I LOVE YOU DEAD.  Inspired by the Al-Amiriyah civilian shelter bombing where 400 civilians perished.  I always hoped someone would get pound of flesh. So I imagined my heroine, Lila. 
          	
          	Still needs a few tweaks before Watty submish. But it's pretty much there. I really appreciate it when you stop by and read a couple chapters. 
          	
          	And now that I'm done, I can read what you are writing! Send me a link to one of your works and I'll slide it onto my summer list.

Friends! Who else is frantically turning their ONC into a Watty? Harder than I thought. Originally, I wanted to write 3 novellas under I LOVE YOU DEAD in the hopes of tantalizing the algorithm. But that structure is complicated to do for the Wattys. So it's going to be a 76K novel instead. It's a lot of writing in a short period of time. That's why I haven't been reading so much (sorry). Tell me what you're doing!

DONE! My #ONC2026 entry --  I Love You Dead is complete! It about 24K words. So an easy weekend binge! Would be ecstatic if you'd read and comment.

 #ONC2026 continues. But I am getting discouraged. I'd love it if you guys could take a look. Am I on the right track?

@AmayaRose66 Awh thanks! Just saw that my story is on the ONC round two qualifiers. So that is at least a nice boost.

@ElleZakria  Just added it to my TBR! I’ll dive in properly when I get a chance and drop some feedback. You’ve got this — #ONC2026 is brutal but you’re still in it
