A Sky of Stone - NaNoWriMo 2014

For National Novel Writing Month in 2014, I worked on book three of a story I started in 2010 with "Following the First Star." That led to "A Sky of Stars" and this year I titled it "A Sky of Stone." The name actually came from one of the other books. When I was re-reading it, I found this phrase just sitting there waiting to be used.

I like the way the story came together, even though had to do my usual mid-month rewrite of my outline. At this point I am officially at 52,642 words and have nine more scenes to write, each about 2,000 words. Then comes the work of putting it all together, rewriting, etc. You know, all that stuff I am terrible at? Yeah, that's waiting for me.
