At the beginning of 2008, this blog would have been called "Just another shitty day..." a lot can change in a short period of time and I'm so thankful for it!

The End
Two words I've never written before today, "The End".
I've written my whole life. In fact, I don't remember a time when I didn't write. It's just something that I do. Sometimes I do it better than others, but I do it. I've always got something buzzing around my brain trying to morph into a full-blown story, but today I finally made it!
I've got tons of half-completed novels on my jump drive and in random notebooks around the house, but now I can say I've completed one! As in, from the beginning, all the way to "The End".
There's a lot of editing that needs to be done, but I think I'm just going to sit and enjoy this surreal feeling of actually being done for a bit before I jump into the sad business of editing.

Bravo!!! I can really relate to what you said about lots of unfinished novels!! It's SO hard to get to THE END sometimes!! I'm proud of you!!
ReplyDeleteBTW - Who knew Snoopy had such issues with Root Beer?? Shocking!!
Congrats! There's something bittersweet about finishing ... almost post-partum depression along with the joy.

ReplyDeleteLil Dreamer - who knew?
Mom - you'll be helping proof and watch for continuity.
K - Thanks. How's law school? Still surviving?
Congrats! How thrilling to have pulled an entire story out of your brain and put it to paper for the rest of us. Seriously - thrilled for you.
ReplyDeleteBut I still think you're insane for running ;)
Thank you so much for linking up the Double Dog Dare. I am so hopeful we can get this to those kids.
GunDiva, survival is a relative term right now. My first "all or nothing" final exam is tomorrow with the second a week from tomorrow. Ask me again after that. Also, stay tuned on my blog. I may have some big news in the next couple of weeks.
