STOLEN CHILD IS FINISHED!
Wow. That was interesting. I finally finished something. It's also something I am very proud of. It still needs a lot of work, but man it feels good to have finished it. I have placed the manuscript on Authonomy, for whoever will read and help.
I know there are loads of kinks I need to work out. I am excited to do so, but I need to step away from this story for a while and worry about another before I can return to it.
As for the ending, I think that is one of my biggest troubles. There are a few parts in there I feel are necessary but rushed. The final fight between Connor and Brychan, for instance. I know that I like the way it isn't just an all out brawl but I feel there is something missing in the fight itself. As for when Connor finally prevails, I absolutely love that.
The rest...hmmm...getting Connor and Winter home and explaining a few things away, well that was rushed but I think it wasn't horribly so. More should have been done with the children though. I'm not sure if I know how to explain it though. Oh well. It will all help when I have this blasted thing edited.
Anyway, as for the rest of the world...I forget who told me, but they were somewhere recently where there was a "Mary Sue Cafe" and they thought of me and my incredible love for Mary Sues. So awesome. I need to figure this out and go there just to see. Maybe they have a picture of Wesley Crusher on the wall somewhere.
On other notes, I need a dog.
Congrats on finishing! That's awesome!
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree, dogs are excellent writing companions.
