The Mirador

Chapter 9: 11,609 words
Chapter 10: 13,678 words
Chapter 11: 17,960 words
Chapter 12: 19,568 words
Chapter 13: 13,582 words

And that's the end of it.

The final total is 172,971 words, which is just about perfect length-wise.

And I have almost three months to turn this draft into something I'm willing to let my editor see.

Maybe I can stop with the anxiety dreams now, kthnx.

Well, you know how I feel about your editors' decision on that issue.

And, anyway, I got lucky; Ace chose to be generous.
