It's almost two months since I completed the first draft of Viridian Legion, second book in the Rakkan Conquest series. It came in at 80,000 words and I was a little worried it would be too short. I've been writing and editing constantly since, and pretty much re-wrote the first half of the book. It is now at 110,000 words so you can see the extent of the re-write but I'm much happier with the story now as it flows and has its foundations fleshed out far better. Poor old Darius is in for a hell of a time...
