W.I.P. (Work in Progress) First Update

Well, today is July 1st. Day one of the summer session of Camp NaNoWriMo
and I am using it as a tool to jump start the second draft of The Conclave. Which is turning into more of a complete rewrite But, one of the biggest reasons I started this blog was to track the process of getting The Conclave published and open a window into my extremely chaotic process. I might even find a little organization along the way (fingers crossed).

I don't want to give too much away with this post, there will be excerpts and the groundwork for this draft is well laid out in my upcoming workshop interview on The Roundtable Podcast. Which will air on July 7th. (be sure and check out the fabulous 20 Minutes with Andrew Weston that is currently available)
The gentlemen interviewing and helping me spin ideas are author Andrew P. Weston, writer, producer and broadcaster  Mike Luoma and the incredible Dave Robison who produces the Roundtable Podcast among many other projects. They are truly remarkable men and I can't wait to see what their insights inspire in this draft .

My goal for the next 30 days is to finish the second draft of the conclave with a 2000 words per day count. Be sure to check back for the next installment of W.I.P. for an excerpt and a progress update!
