Working on draft 2.5 of Wish You Were Here

21,000 / 40,000 (52.5%)

That it's draft 2.5 means that there are parts that are going very quickly--cutting-and-pasting, with a little bit of time for adjusting the prose--and there are parts that need to be reshuffled or rewritten or written new. But I'm optimistic about getting a final draft in time for the Delacorte Press YA novel contest deadline, which is sometime in December.
