All right. Sunday’s over, and the last push has begun. Book is due ASAP. Let’s get this thing done.
75% of the final rewrite of Towers of Midnight is done.
78%. Normally, 4:00 would be time to go to bed, but I took a nap today to get me ready for the long haul. Onward we go, then.
At about 85% from the work over night. Is that the sun? Hello.
At the 90% mark on the Towers of Midnight final draft.
Still here. 93%. Going a little slower than I was earlier in the night, but still determined to make deadline.
94% And a thunderstorm rolls past. (looks upward.) Thanks. Very narratively appropriate.
95% done. Note: though it seems I’m coming down to the wire, know that if I weren’t confident the book were right, I’d have pulled it.
I went into this revision knowing that we were almost there. I wouldn’t release the book at almost, though, regardless of consequences.
96% I am feeling very good about the things I have fixed in this draft. This is going to be a great book.
97% done. The end is in sight, folks.
98%.
99%.
Ladies and gentlemen…last draft is done. Towers of Midnight is set for an on-time release, November 2nd.
And it is off. Last draft sent to Team Jordan for a final review. They will have some final questions/tweaks for me when I wake up.
I will do those tonight after I wake up from crashing, then will send the book to Tor so it is in by the time people get to work tomorrow.
