New Year’s Resolution #4 Completed: Complete the first 100 pages of ‘The Seducer’s Handbook’

Whenever I’m currently working on a novel I like to set certain benchmarks for myself. So instead of making one resolution to finish a first draft of a manuscript I usually set another resolution or two for every one hundred pages completed. And I’m happy to say that last night I surpassed page 100 in my latest novel ‘The Seducer’s Handbook’ after beginning it last October (less than five month ago). So if time is any indication I should have a working first draft before I head to this year’s World Con in Montreal this August should nothing happen with my first novel ‘Second Death’.

For those who are unfamiliar with my blog or myself, ‘The Seducer’s Handbook’ is the first book of a planned trilogy about a group of underground seducers known simply as ‘The Community’ that protect the public from the supernatural forces that plague the city of Toronto. But when word comes around that this much sought after ‘Seducer’s Handbook’ contains an untold power to whoever wields it, divisions are quickly drawn.

I mean what’s cooler than guys prowling the night streets with crossbows in hand. Nonetheless, I still need to finish the draft but at least I’m accomplishing something.
