The End

Just a quick update to say that I’ve typed the words THE END for both my short story and my novel. Which means…absolutely nothing.

Actually, I'm kidding. What it means is, I can shift completely into the editing mode. People who edit their work as they go are amazing. I learned a long time ago that I could get bogged down for three days on one sentence if I did that. So, when I say I wrote THE END on both pieces, I mean I now have a nearly illegible draft of something that I can chip away at until I find the good bits.

What fun!

dude totally about that getting stuck on a sentence for three days. i can think myself into a black hole. not necessarily a bad thing, just not productive.

i'm lucky, at least i can write my music, decide what's crap, get rid of it and only show the good parts. i'm not on display for some editor.
