D-O-N-E Spells Relief

Working Title: Her Good Name


Final Length: 331 pages or 82, 580


Total Cuts: 725 pages or 191,128 words

You guys not having to hear me whine about this anymore: Priceless

And the final line (at least until my readers tell me it smells like Limburger cheese on a hot day ). . . “All it takes is a little work, a little faith, and perhaps a sturdy set of heels.”

I'm a happy girl tonight! Thanks for all the encouragement.
