I finished my revision yesterday! 🎉
The plan now is for me to take a nice, long break and not think about writing this story. 👀
Easier said than done, when I know I have a list of things I need to change. But I’m going to be good and take a break. It helps that we’ve got fun anniversary vacation plans coming up. I can devote time to be excited about them, instead of using up so much headspace on my novel.
I printed all 314 pages of it and put the manuscript into a binder, for editing. Funny, it’ll probably coincide with me writing the first draft of my next novel. Funny should really be in quotes here. I don’t want to put off either project, but the thought of working on them at the same time seems daunting, to say the least.
Anyway, enough about all of that. I feel like I only write about writing here. It’s my main theme for this site, but it’s not the only thing I care about!
Spooky season is finally upon us. I’ve had my Halloween costume since February. My husband and I have been watching scary movies. We get a jump on Halloween* because our anniversary trip takes time away from it (for good reason, though!)
It’s my favorite time of year. It’s only fitting I should have a writing break now to fully enjoy it.
* I don’t usually get my costume this early, though. Let’s just say I was extremely inspired.
