FIRST DRAFT COMPLETE!!!

WOOT WOOT! *dances*

I have FINISHED the first draft of Letters to Oliver! Huzzah!

Now I still need to edit it and send it to betas, of course, because right now I am way too happy with it and of course I need to find things to make better. Because there are going to be things that need to be fixed. Aside from a few historical details I need to check up on, I have no idea what those are.

But. I am not going to think about Letters to Oliver for a while so that I can see it clearly when I go back to it. (I also need to go print the whole thing out. *researches cost of printing things at Staples*)

SO. This means lots of reading (yay John Green books), job hunting (ugh), and possibly the start of a new and intense round of revisions/rewriting for A Bridge to War. More on that later, I suppose.

Wish me luck with this one, guys!

  1. Ooh - congrats! That;s such an awesome feeling! Plus I love the little blurb about Letters to Oliver in your side bar. I adore epistolary novels - and I've never read one set in the victorian period. Cool.
