The end is in sight, and it’s a nice sight! The novel is on the precipice of completion, and I can see the path from here to there pretty dang clearly. Almost certainly going to finish it today, and then take a break from writing until Wednesday when I dive into the 2nd draft.
The transition from first to second draft is an interesting one. I tend to over-write the first draft and then pare back to the best bits. A bit like a gardener trimming away dead leaves so that the plant can grow stronger.
(We watched a few episodes of “Big Flower Fight”, which is full of VERY arrogant people and that bothers me, but it’s been kinda neat to hate-watch)
Anyway, I should get back to wrapping up the story in a satisfying way. Finish line in sight, let’s get this done!
