Procrastination or Good Planning?

by Marybeth on Nov.30, 2009, under My Blog

I am up to about 52,000 words now. I am amazed that my other novel is over 80K. That seems insane. I’m ok with sticking nearer to the 60K mark. Though that is easier to do with a YA novel.

At this point I am having troubles ending my story. I feel like I need to edit more before I can end it. Not for the typical reasons, but instead because I want to make sure I end it properly. Have you ever had that happen? Or do you think I’m just procrastinating?

Regardless I am still in love with this story. Now if I can just find a way to end it and come up with a pitch I’ll be in good shape. Good shape to edit that is!

That’s right kids! I finished it. And not only did I finish it, but I finished it last week, 10 days early!  An entire 50K in 20 Days.

However, I did not finish the book itself. I still have a chapter or two to go. I need to reread and make sure I close all the plot holes. But I have to admit, this book is amazing!!! I have loved every moment of it and I can’t wait to share it with the world … after about 5 more drafts!
