Phew.
I’ve just written the words “THE END” after 63,000 words of Darwood and Smitty. The first draft is complete. My goal has been to start pitching it to agents by the end of January. As I’ve scoured the first draft several times, there is mostly just clean-up work and term consistencies to address throughout the draft. I think I’ll be about on target to get it into some hands by then, and we’ll see just what happens from there.
Time to go celebrate by going to bed? Nope, wait — maybe an episode of Scrubs to celebrate. That’s got to be what successful people do.
