I’m done! I finished the rough draft for my WIP at page 449. Hurray! Now I’ll work through critique group corrections, fill in descriptive details, then start my read-throughs to make sure I’ve covered everything. My nose cold is on its way out, so my brain is clear, and I’m eager to get back to normal. I’ll make these minor revisions now. Our vacation comes at the perfect time so I can get some distance from the story, then start reading it fresh when we return. What a wondrous feeling to be finished with the creative process. I don’t feel a sense of let-down yet, because I still have all the polishing to do. I’ll stay in this imaginary world until I am completely satisfied with the story. Then the manuscript gets sent to my agent, and it’s on to the next project. Onward and upward!

Congrats, Nancy. That's got to be one of the greatest feelings. Best of luck with it--and your next project.

I'm wallowing in chapter 5 -- or maybe it's chapter 7. I still can't decide if chapters 3 and 4 had enough plot points to justify their existence. But I'm FINALLY back to the word count of where I was before I cut them.

Great news! Best of luck with it. You continue to inspire me. Have a great trip.:)

Thanks, all. I'll probably take a hiatus from my blog while we're on vacation. So have a great Fourth of July!

Looks interesting, the content seems very weird but your story looks interesting to see.
