Completed my book!
14 years ago
It's done for real this time, I promise. lol
So, about an hour ago I finished up the epilogue for my book, which, since yesterday, is titled Bringer of Storms: Brotherhood.
I managed to churn out two long-ish chapters yesterday, and did the very short epilogue just this night. So, now that the first draft (or draft 1.5, really) is complete, I have to go back and edit a bunch of crap. Hopefully I can get most of that done before September comes around and I start getting lot work from school. It's a bit of a stretch, but I managed to edit the first 3/4's of the book in less than a month, so maybe it won't be so bad?
Anyway, this marks my first original project that is not only complete, but satisfactory. I had like, three or four ideas that I tried to write, and they all sucked because I didn't think them through, and in one instance really tried too hard to be something I'm not. And then there's my four fan-fics, and my nanowrimo novel from last year, which was only kinda half-completed. :P I'm hoping that this can really turn into something good, something publishable, even.
I don't think I've ever really been this into a story before. Like, I'm really proud that I've been able to make these characters work so well, and that I've been able to think more when writing this story, and that I'm actually interested in going back and editing things to make sure that they're perfect.

Reminds me of how I felt (and feel) about me writing my own novel length story. I have only one more detail to iron out before I can put mine up. Hehe.
