Done and Done

Thanks for forwarding the pic, Ryan.
I finished my WIP today. And its only taken forever.  It's off to a few kind souls who have agreed to be readers and then to my agent. While, I'm waiting for responses, I'm going to convert Shardai to paper.  Gosh I feel so industrious. grin.
I ran across another quotable. This one was from Sue Grafton's 'C' Is For Corpse. "I'm not a process person. I like goals and closure, the arrival instead of the journey itself." Can't you relate with that? Whether you're writing, sewing, cooking, or reading a good book, aren't you excited to start and impatient to finish? I know I am.
So what's on your agenda? Have you finished an 'its taken forever project?
Oh, and by the way, may your Monday pass quickly:)

Congratulations on making it across the finish line. I does feel good to have it done. I know the feeling though it was fleeting... I recently finished my wip and then felt I needed to punish myself some more (yes I'm crazy) and now I'm kneed deep in heavy rewrites. uggg. But I'll relish the day I can finish my wip--again. Thanks for stopping by my blog, happy to follow you back.

Congrats and yeah some things I want to get done already, others couldn't care less.

Congrats on finishing!! I'm THIS close to finishing my current WIP (two years of effort). I have to say, though, I do enjoy the process. I love coming up with the story. But, yeah, huge relief to get it done too.

Yay for finishing! Now the fun part: edits. I do mean that. Some people despise edits. I get off on them--because what's better than taking something and making it sparkle? (Unless it's a vampire.)

My big project? Book release. *deep breath* One day at a time.

Congrats to you! Always good to sit back and admire what you've done. I'm almost finished with the piece for the faculty art show next week.

Thanks, Shelley. He looks pretty content doesn't he?

Hey Elise, Thanks for the follow!
The rewrites are challenging aren't they?. I've already got a couple of responses to my wip and what I'm hearing is more backfill, so I'm going back to it. Good luck with yours;)

Sandra Cox said...

Congrats on closing in on the finish, L.G. I'm going to have to go back and do some cleanup. But that's okay.

Sandra Cox said...

Hey Crystal, I like that...making it sparkle. When is your book release?

Sandra Cox said...

Thanks, CJ. What piece are you putting in the art show.

Sandra Cox said...
