I have no idea how long I worked on it for, but I do know that it was in it's early stages in the winter of 2008. So at least a year and a half. As of last night, I finished it! 86 pages. Longest thing I've ever written. The only thing that came close was the story I titled after Eliot's The Hollow Men, which was 78 pages and about 4 or 5 thousand less words, but that was kind of crappy and basically "Red Eye" on a train. I have no idea if this one's any better, and I know that even if it IS, I'll be revising it for forever... but I don't care.
I FINISHED something. I finished 86 PAGES of something.
I feel amazing.
Congratulations, Laura! :D

Will you let me read it? I would love to!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited for you! That really is an accomplishment ♥
Well, B, I've gotta do some fixing first... I've been having this terrible fear that maybe it's not good at all, and nobody will ever want to read it... so now I have to make it perfect. Which means that you can all probably read it in fifty years or so.
