At the begining of May I
wrote a blog post entitled Time in
which I talked about how time flies. The post
also included a short summary of my current WIP.
Status on 2nd May 2015:
- Working
Title: Project Two
- Status: Chapter Eight in progress
- Current
Total Word Count: 40773
I also wrote that I planned to finish it by the
end of August 2015. Today I can proudly say that I managed to do it. It was
finished on 31st August 2015.
With the help of a friend I wrote the second
draft and completed the first grammar corrections on that day. And wrote those
final two words: The End.
The
question mark?
To be honest I wasn't really sure it was the end - but it was...
finished.
I
struggled with writing the last sceenes of the last chapter. I always do. As
soon as the ending is in my head, I have a hard time putting the words on the
paper. It doesn't matter that I know I have to let them go - I still try to
hold on to the characters, to the story for one more day, one more
night...
But
then it's time - time to let go. But I
know they won't leave so quickly. There's an unavoidable way to meet them again
- through four dreadful letters.
EDIT
