Once again, Shelby isn’t deceased.
First, I’d like to say Thank You for those readers who’ve taken the time to read any or all of this chapter. Being well over 10K words, it’s a fairly long read when compiled.
Being the 2nd draft of the chapter, it’s grown some since the first time I posted it. I’d estimate from 6K to nearly 11K words.
Since Chapter 1 only discloses only one character and gives away almost nothing of the plot, it’s “blogperfect”!
My first draft is nearly finished. So far totaling approximately 70K words. Oh…what a fantastic journey it’s been! I wrote 60K words, scrapped 60K words, and then started over. I now have quite a bit of Book #2 finished because of this learning experience.

Thank you. At some point in the near future I’ll be completing the novel. The Shelby Chapter is 1 of 14, and I’m almost done 🙂 . I really appreciate the feedback!
