I'm now 476 pages into the second draft, which is 25 pages since the last update. This is the second week in a row that I did 20+ pages. What's even crazier is that I wrote 10 pages in a day, moving from 15 pages to 25, which I don't think I've done before, or at least for a very long time. Might've done that while writing AP4, but I don't remember. My updates for AP4's final months were more vague and not specific on which page I was on like I've been doing with the AP3 updates. Regardless, I had a very good writing week. I finished off the betrayal, wrote a short chapter with Petrenko's brother, Dimitri, and finally started the long awaited Hamburg segment. Most of what I wrote this week was dialogue, which I think made it easier to follow compared to a battle scene. There is an action scene coming up but it will be smaller scale. There won't be a bigger scale scene until later on, but it won't be action-less either.
I'm also on page 25 of the outline and I expect to move another page up this coming week. The 151 page mark is still so far away, but I think I will start getting closer to it in the coming weeks. I'm also nearing 500 pages. If I repeat the progress I made this week, then I will hit it for sure. At this moment, I'm more energized to keep writing, similar to how I was during the Brazil segment a few months ago.
