I have completed eleven chapter of Midnight in Suburbia and I have nineteen chapters left to write. I think of each day's writing as a chapter because that helps me focus on the plan I created in October. I am not following that plan completely, but I am using it as a guide.

I realized Sunday that there is at least one chapter I have not spell checked, I just cannot remember which chapter. I also realized that I used the name Ruby to refer to the main character's office manager rather then Rachel, but I am not sure which chapter I was working on at the time. I am not going back and look for either of those chapters until December.

I begin the rewrite in December so I can spell check, grammar check, and check the names of each character in the novel. I am in the middle of Novel Writing Month and moving so I do not have a lot of time to go back check much of anything in the chapters I have written to date. I suppose I could have a lot more on my plate and I will as soon as I have changed residence.
