The first draft of Queen of Swans clocks in at 91,000 words.

That's right, it's done! It's a ghoul of a manuscript and I'm terrified of looking at it again, but it's done!

91,000 is kinda long for YA romance, but not too long for YA fantasy. It also fills in some gaps that I've seen lacking in a lot of gay fiction--like, oh, happy endings or long-running gay themes without "omg we're gay" angst because ugh so tiresome! I just want pretty girls in pretty dresses making pretty faces at each other and the only thing tearing them apart is an evil sorcerer, like in any other fairy tale romance!

And this morning I found out that I'm apparently going to Disney this weekend, so my timing really couldn't be better.
