I am exhausted, and happy, all at the same time.
And I'm done. For this round. (g)

I've Finished!
Well, I thought the day would never come, but finally, after a marathon writing session this week, I've finished the first draft of Blood of the Heart! I'd always heard that the last chapters of a book often come all in a rush, and mine certainly did (I blogged about my last few days of writing here, at All the World's Our Page.)

CONGRATS!!!!! It's a wonderful feeling, isn't it? :-D
Woooooo! Congratulations!!!!!! Champagne :-)
Jenny, Deniz, thanks for the congrats and the champagne, and yes - even five days later it's still a damn good feeling!
Awesome. To finish tht first draft--what a journey, huh? It has to feel so good.
I need to do a writing marathon like you and just force myself to kick out the last two chapters of my first draft for my WIP. Endings are horrible for me, so I struggle and drag my feet.
I need to set a goal and Just do it (like Nike says).
Nice to meet you fellow crusader.
Hey, thanks, Angela!
Gah, if only I could get on with my revisions at the same pace as I finished my first draft, I'd be tickled pink. I seem to have fallen in a hole ... which I blogged about today over at http://alltheworldsourpage.blogspot.com/
... but I have hopes that I'll be back on that horse real soon, and whipping it over the finish line. :-)
I'm sure you'll get to the end of your WIP, too. Just remember that ANY words on the page are better than none. Any words can be polished to a high gleam when you revise. Just get them down, and worry later.
Good luck!
Congrats! Just found you through the Writers'-Platform Building Crusade. I look forward to crusading with you!
Thanks, Lindz!
Great to see so many fellow crusaders popping by here, and at my main haunt, http://alltheworldsourpage.blogspot.com/
I'm off to have a sqizz at your blog now!
