Hmm...I've made some headway and I'm about done with the first chapter. According to my plot outline, this book'll be in 5 parts, as follows.

Part 1: First Impressions
Part 2: An End and a Beginning
Part 3: Opportunity Knocks
Part 4: Life Crashes In
Part 5/Epilogue: Across the Mountains and Valleys

Most likely, I won't let many people read as it progresses, but I'm sure I'll think of at least a couple of people with LOTS of free time and who are, of course, willing to read my first attempt at such a book as this. *muses* The first chapters of Part 1 are going to be a bit draggy though by the looks of it, because I have to introduce both protagonists and I'd like to familiarize the readers with them before moving the story along. But my hope is that once through that part, I can garner your/people's interest and keep them reading to the end (if I get the story to the end....must be committed to finishing this time around!)

Now the question is...should I type each chapter as I go or just write the whole thing out before typing...ahh I know...write out a full part first before typing...then I can easily work on different parts simultaneously if I need to since each part represents a different stage of their life :)

I'm gonna work super hard on this one...hopefully I'll be able to juggle working on this and studying bio and (hopefully) driving. Wish me lots of luck :-D Now...sleep calls and tomorrow, the end of chapter 1 and the beginning of chapter 2!!

GOOD NIGHT!
