1500 Words In

I'm one chapter into my next Pat Ruger novel, about 1500 words so far.  I have to keep reminding myself that my first book took almost a year, the second about nine months, and this one is just the first month in.  So while it might SEEM like it's going to take the rest of the year to get it done, realistically I'm probably going to finish before the end of summer.  It helps that this time I have the plot line fairly thought out.  I struggled with that at times with my first two books.
