GOODBYE, MONIQUE (103), August 15-September 5, 2018

 File — Box: 195, Folder: 9

Scope and Contents

BOOK ONE, this time around, seriously edited, only 41,800 words. Labelled Jmonique.20g again. I cut out their childhoods, started the story when they meet, court, and get married. And ended it when Monique died in August 1942 on page 168. The aftermath is very short and sweet, same with the Epilogue. I had an epiphany, and just wanted the book to be about the 5 years Dad and Monique were together. Pretty close to #98 above. 183 pages.
