Armored Piercing Operations

I'm now 227 pages into the second draft, which is 23 pages since the last update. I'm still in the Brazil segment, but I think this coming week I will finally finish it. The villain I mentioned in previous posts has finally been introduced and he will bring about a very tense conclusion to the Brazil segment. I think this is the third or fourth week in a row that I managed to hit 20 pages. I'm very proud of the consistent progress and it has really elevated my mental health, which would've been very poor otherwise. Brazil has been so much fun to write, it was also fun when I wrote it in the OG draft years ago, and I think you will have fun too when you finally get to read it.

With Armored Piercing 4, I have now surpassed 1330 pages, making it the first time I ever wrote a draft that exceeded 1300 pages. I'm very proud of the progress I've been making these past couple of months. I wrote over 100 pages in one month alone, which is the most I've ever done in a long time. I hope I can keep this up!

I recently surpassed 1230 pages for AP4. This makes it the longest book I've ever written. My 1st draft for AP3 was just below 1200 pages. I never imagined reaching this length for the book, but there's still so much story to tell. There's no doubt I'll surpass 1300 pages, and maybe I'll hit 1400 pages, which would be insane. I'm trying to finish AP4 as soon as possible so that I can get back to working on a final draft for AP3. It's been 4 years since publishing AP2 and I don't want to keep any fans waiting for more years. When I finish AP4, I might write a blog post about my writing journey on that book.
