At last! At last!
Sep. 26th, 2008 01:24 pmThe story that has eaten my life is finished. It just needs a second pair of eyes to proof it, and perhaps just a bit of time to steep before I send it out into the world for public consumption. It came in at about 10 pages, and 3,900 words. And that took a month of working -- albeit off and on -- until I thought it was as good as I could make it. It ain't earth shattering literature... but it's mine.
Slow and steady. I've been trying not to rush the process just for the sake of getting to the finish line. Such an odd thing to essentially move in with a couple of characters for a month or so. They made pretty good houseguests... except for that time when we were all in the car together and they got a little out of control. BUT I got good dialogue out of it, so who am I to complain?
So stay tuned...
