Around midnight last night I finished the last bit of revision. I had been typing for so long that my arm ached, but when I finally saved the COMPLETED word doc of The Blood Queen, I danced around the apartment in triumph.
I’m pretty sure it nearly killed me. I spent most of this morning and early afternoon recovering from multiple sleepless nights desperately trying to finish the manuscript ready for beta reading. Why? Because I have so much else to do and if I didn’t finish the manuscript by early this week, I didn’t know when I’d get the time again.
However, I’m victorious! And while about two weeks later than I said I’d get it done, I still managed to finish it! Now it’s on to my next major project to complete before August (I hope there’s no more late nights ahead *sigh* I have to get in practice of waking up way too early for anyone who is a Night Owl): finishing my unit planning.
