are done done done!
Well, mostly. I have moved on to the next section which is rather raw. As you may or may not recall, I wrote this book during the month of November for NaNo. I have been editing/rewriting it and now have gotten to where I left off on the rewrite.
It feels good, this working thing. I got a lot done today, planning and actual doing. But my brain has froze with all the information (when did this happen? Before or after? does she know this already at this point?).
Congrats! While I have no firsthand experience with writing long works, I have watched and consoled my Roomie for the past couple of years going thru re-write after re-write and edit after edit of her first major tome. Looks like an agonizing process! I’ve asked her several times, and she has not yet been able to answer in any definitive way, “How do you know when it’s finished?” She usually mumbles something about “you just know.”
Point her in the direction of ‘cat licking’
