Finished chapter 25; 51817 word count
Writing Tip: Occasionally similar words will show up in a sentence and although they are not incorrect, they have an awkward sound to them. (One of the reasons for reading your work aloud.)
Original: He didn't want her to think he thought she was oddly dressed.
Revised:
He didn’t need her to misconstrue his opinion. Effie wore odd combinations, but she managed to look comfortable, not self-conscious.

Mrs. Paul is a fantasy author and grandma. This blog is something like a daily journal. She will list the word count and chapter number of what she is working on and will post one writer's tip that she actually used during her day of writing.
