That’s right, people.
Check out the silver beauty of that counter on the left. I’m done! I finished SKIN GAME. On Monday, I’ll get started on revisions. I’m soooooooooo happy. I stuck to my schedule of 3K a day, weekends off, every step of the way, and six weeks later, I have a sweet draft weighing in over 95K. The final polished book is supposed to be 100K, and I generally add at least 5K in revisions, so we’re good.
Come party with me and you could win a book by Nalini Singh, Eve Kenin, Meljean Brook, Lauren Dane, or Anya Bast. Yes, you get to pick the title from their backlist.
Winner announced next week, whenever I feel like it. So who knows how long you have to enter? If you want a book, shout it out in comments. Look at their sites and tell me what book you’d pick.

Since I just picked up Anya Bast’s, The Chosen Sin (so can’t wait to read this one), would love to read Driven by Eve Kenin.
October 17th, 2008 at 1:01 pm

Congrats! I can’t wait. Oh yeah ummm I would have to go for Anya Bast, I think I am uptodate on just about everyone else :)
October 17th, 2008 at 2:39 pm
Congrats on finishing “Skin Game.” I would to win a copy of What Happens In Vegas.
October 17th, 2008 at 3:51 pm
Congrats on finishing Skin Game! Love to get one by all, lol, and for those choosing Hidden, really good book. I love Nalini Singh’s PSy series and have read all of them, so I’d love to get the latest story in The Magical Christmas Cat anthology I haven’t had a chance to get yet (Nalini said in her chat last night she considers it part of her backlist.
October 17th, 2008 at 3:59 pm
Yeah! Congrats on finishing Skin Game. Does this mean we’ll get it before next December? I hope so. Can’t wait to read about Kyra and Reyes.
I’ve been meaning to start Lauren Dane’s Chase Brother series so I’d pick Giving Chase.
October 17th, 2008 at 4:44 pm
Congratulations on finishing Skin Game, you’re a writing machine! Love the Playlist.
I’ll go with The Chosen Sin by Anya Bast.
October 17th, 2008 at 5:12 pm
Oohh….I would love to read something by Meljean Brooks or Lauren Dane. Although, I have an ARC of Dane’s Undercover, so I would probably go with the Brooks novel.
October 17th, 2008 at 7:48 pm
YaY! Way to go. I’m thinking of upping my daily goal because 1k a day, which used to feel huge, just feels like nothing lately.
October 17th, 2008 at 9:08 pm
I’d love Meljean Brook’s Demon Angel
October 17th, 2008 at 10:22 pm
Congrats on finishing and I would love anything by Anya Bast or Nalini Singh!
October 17th, 2008 at 10:41 pm
would love a backlist by nalini singh
October 17th, 2008 at 11:43 pm
Congrats on finishing the book!! How exciting and another book to be added to my must buy list!
October 18th, 2008 at 12:11 am
Well done, lass – happy dance indeed!
I’d really like to read Lauren Dane’s Undercover. But it doesn’t count as “backlist” as it hasn’t been released yet. Still, I’m eager to get my filthy mitts on it, because I’m all about futuristics right now. And I’m currently reading Anya Bast’s The Chosen Sin. And I have Grimspace on my shelf waiting to be read. Still need to track down Wanderlust though…
Have a lovely day!
October 18th, 2008 at 1:54 am
A HUGE congrats on getting the draft done! Yay. Awesome. It sounds like the kind of schedule I keep when writing a first draft – 3k+ every single day, with weekends off. :D
Enjoy the weekend!
October 18th, 2008 at 3:25 am
I’ve already got more books than I can handle at the moment, but wanted to give you a congrats anyway.
October 18th, 2008 at 10:43 am
Congrats chica! I hope I’m gonna be like you when I grow up. :D I’m finally feeling like I’m done with my ms, just a teeny, tiny *year* after I started.
October 18th, 2008 at 2:25 pm
Congratulations, Ann! Well done!
Giving Chase by Lauren Dane
October 19th, 2008 at 12:00 pm

October 20th, 2008 at 9:55 am

October 20th, 2008 at 1:29 pm
