I finished the first draft of a novel today. All I need to do now is rewrite and edit it a few times, do the synopsis and sell it. Maybe I'll wait until tomorrow to start that, I'm all written out.
Here are a couple of competitions that don't require much work. This one's for a laptop and this is for some book.
Oh, well done! I love the re-writing because you know what's going to happen and the plot's all there, and all you have to do is polish it. A sort of uncreative creativity! Very good luck with it.
ReplyDeleteThat's great news Patsy. Good luck with it.
ReplyDeleteWell done, Patsy.
ReplyDeleteI like the first re-write, Frances. At this stage, the story still feels fresh and interesting and I know I can improve it (my first drafts are always full of tense changes and all sorts of messy stuff like that)
ReplyDeleteLots of chocolate and red wine for you!! Yay!! Well done Patsy!! Take care

Congrats Patsy! Happy editing!
ReplyDeleteKitty, you're right - I need a reward before I start the edits!
ReplyDeleteWell done, Patsy!
ReplyDeleteOh God I feel lazier by the day, and here's you, just into March and finished a whole novel. Hope you started it in 1988,that'd make me feel better.
ReplyDeletewell done, Tosh. I think you should enter the Toshiba laptop comp, it would be SO fitting!
I've only finished the first draft, Ceka - not the whole thing!
ReplyDeleteYou're such a busy bee I'm having trouble keeping up - well done
