  Russian Snows: Coming of Age in Napoleon's Army

Nearing the end of the 30,000 word cut

5/26/2011

With two chapters to go, I've cut 28,000 words out of the manuscript.  This will put the total word count around 85,000.  Still too long for a Middle School/Young Adult novel.
Leaning toward making two books: one before the campaign and one during the campaign.  The tricky part will be how to handle the story lines that cross over.
