The First Draft

It's done. The first draft is officially done. Editing and irritating minutiae are still waiting to be finished, but the first draft is done. I am so tied I don't even have the energy to celebrate. I really hope my cousin comes by tomorrow.

Congratulations! And don't worry. You'll have plenty of time to celebrate later ;)

Thanks! My brain feels like I put it through a blender. God, I just want to write. Fiction. Proper writing. But my body is so sick of this chair. I think I might go read in the porch just to change the landscape.

Do it! Celebrate being able to leave the room! I'm currently sitting in a chair as opposed to on my bed or the kitchen, which is where I usually have the laptop, and it's different indeed.

Yay, congrats! It must feel so awesome to have that thing done :D

Woohoo! Congratulations! I personally can't think of a better way to celebrate not having to run your brain through a blender anymore than by having a good long rest. Enjoy it!

Thanks! I'm reserving the big celebrations until I'm done done and shipping the stupid thing, but it is wonderful to have this finished.

Thank you! Heh, the funny thing is that right now the kind of rest I need involved climbing up a mountain until my legs can't take it anymore. I seriously want to be outside. I'm looking at the State Parks page right now to see if there's someplace I can go to. Wisconsin Dells would be wonderful right (wrong state, I don't care).

Congratulations! It is always GORGEOUS to finish up stages of academic tedium.

Thank you! It felt so wonderful last night to not have that pestering voice in my head chanting "1400 words to go".
