Wooo-hooo!
I finished the first draft of my first novel!

| This is what 86,000 words printed on double-sided paper looks like |
Finishing it didn't feel at all like I thought it would though. It's probably because the editor in me knows that I'm not really finished--that there is a lot of work left to do.
For starters, I need to read it, send it out to a trusted group of readers, revise it, send it to my agent, and then start that process all over again.
But first...
I'm going to take a deep breath and celebrate just a little bit.
Yay!
Oh my gosh!!!
