Done, done, done. Doing the happy dance! I finished Sweet Caroline today. Fifteen hours in my chair. But I did it. Took about an hour break at 9 p.m.
Now to edit. It needs some fixing. But, writing to the end let me know how I wanted to tie things together so I know what to fix, what to add or change. Very. Good.
I wrote 7,500 words today.
Since February first, I’ve written probably sixty thousand new words. But, I knew the story based on the other iterations of the story. So, don’t be too impressed.
I am hard at it for eleven more days, then it’s due and I’ll turn it in. It’s a good story. I like it a lot. I made cried writing a closing scene with her brother.
Love story twist at the end. This is the first time I’ve written a book open to a sequel. I usually launch the heroine on a journey and sorta tie it up at the end.
This book ends with Caroline launching into something new and a few story questions are open for speculation.
God is so very good. He helped, as always.
I love my job!
More on overcoming fear tomorrow.
