I have successfully written a draft of an original fiction novel.
I feel like I should take myself out for cocktails, but sadly, I have no clean clothes and it's Sunday night.
Even if nothing ever comes of it, I feel pretty damn proud of myself.
So, yeah, this is me bragging. I rock.
Now I am going to NOT work on my novel for several months, because I am sick of the damn thing and I hate it. :P

Congrats again!
Thanks (again!)
*bows*
Thanks!
That's the eventual plan - do another draft that is stronger and better, and then see if I can shop it around.
But yes, in the immediate future, I am just going to take a break - catalogue some S7 Supernatural clothes, maybe rewatch some more Sherlock, maybe write some more fanfiction. But I don't think I'm going to touch my novel again until January. I
And 4 months is a good amount of time to be away from the Novel. Go back to it with fresh eyes and thoughts and you will make it better than ever.
I'm really looking forward to doing the S7 clothes...I just have to wait for the DVDs to come out (and then cross my fingers that my older sister buys them for me for my birthday like usual).
It's a nice little system we have going. ;)
I'm also working on my first novel currently ; ) About 2/3 of the way done with the fist draft. (the first section is actually on its second draft already)
Congrats to you too!
I refused to start the second draft until I was done the first - otherwise I just envisioned myself rewriting the beginning at infinitude and never reaching the end.

I spent $22 on thai food tonight, so that was quite celebratory! I'm also thinking of wrapping my celebrations up with my birthday... as an excuse to spend more on myself on my birthday, really. :P
But I hope you do do something special, because it's quite an accomplishment.
I ordered in some thai food for dinner - so that was kind of a celebration! ;)
I'm going to a concert tomorrow night too - which I had planned to do before I finished the novel, but still, I'm sure it counts as a celebration as well.
