I DID IT, YOU GUYS. I have sent my first draft of Casefic off to beta. There are probably all the things wrong with it, so God help me once Chris gets going, but I seriously thought this was never going to happen. I might be crying a little. I think this is a bit of what it feels like sending your child to their first day of kindergarten.
I have been writing this thing for two years. (I started it for NaNo in 2009, so including a couple weeks of planning before that, yep, almost exactly two years.) Current word count: 122, 129 words. Where did they all come from? I WISH I KNEW.
(I estimate Gaudy Night at around 150K. Not that I just took my copy down and counted how many words on a page, or anything.)
