EDITING IS DONE!

YES! You heard me! My first round of editing is done and I have to say… I think I wrote more than I took out!

WHAT?!

How is that possible? I actually deleted pages of writing. Sigh… I did not plan on having a novel this large. How large, you ask? It’s 145,000 pages <ducking my head to avoid projectile missiles>. Yes, my book is a whopping 500 pages (or 498 to be precise). I don’t even want to think about that right now.

So, I’m going to return to my manuscript and plug away at Editing: Round 2. There has to be at least something I can cut, right? I hope so. I don’t think that those people with 100,000 word limits would be too happy to see my showing up with my behemoth in hand (well, maybe with a wagon).

I’m going back in… I’m jumping into the murky depths of the pages and hope to come back out victorious.

Send help if you don’t hear back from me…  glub, glub, glub.

Until next time ~ 

IT’S DONE!! IT’S DONE!! IT’S DONE!!

Can you tell by the excitement in my voice that I finally finished writing my book?! I’ve dancing around my house like a crazy person and I fear that I’m not about to stop anytime soon.  :)

I’ve been working my butt off to get the last of the scenes to mesh up and align accordingly. I’ve even skipped watching my favorite TV shows in order to keep my writing on track. But it has paid off because I’M DONE WRITING MY BOOK! 

Okay, okay… I’ve taken several deep breaths to calm down and come back to the computer. I’ve decided to reward myself and take a two day break from writing and then I’m going to read the whole thing while making editing notes. I don’t think I’ve read the entire book in a long time. It was definitely last year.

So, enjoy your Valentine’s Day/President’s Day weekend and I hope to give you more good news soon.  :)

Now if I only could find time to catch up on those TV shows…

Until next time ~
