......oh I just wanted to share this with people who understand the elation and the slight euphoria. Ahem, I have NEARLY FINISHED my first novel. Can't imagine what I will be like when I actually DO finish. But yes, I have so very nearly finished. Actually though I'm not sure I have had enough pain, I guess that is to come when I can't get a Publisher and my words are thrown back at me as a waste of ink.........Must Calm Down tee hee.........
Thank you for posting this, June. It is very inspiring for first-drafters like me to know that "the end" is out there waiting for us. Congratulations on finishing and best of luck with the next phase!
Congratulations!!! Almost ;)
Writing 'The End' is a brilliant moment, especially for a first novel.
But...now you've nearly got the easy part over, the tough bit begins.
Best of luck :)
