An Ending

[dyir]

As of 5:30 PM Eastern Standard Time, I have completed my first novel ever, The Legend of the Golden Land: Book One. It took roughly eleven months to complete, and clocks in at over 166,000 words, making it my longest work to date. I am rather proud of it and have now completed my New Years resolution for this year. Now I'll take a break until

Congrats!

Next up: obligatory "when can I read it?!?"

[dyir]

Hm...right now, honestly. Except that I, apparently, do not have your email address. So, if any of you want the story (except for those of you who already get the story in regular installments and should already have it), just email me at my LJ name at yahoo dot com.

Congrats, I am very impressed. You can expect an e-mail from me as well.

Now my question, what do you plan on doing with your novel? I'd imagine self-editing, seeking a publisher, or perhaps self-publishing? Or perhaps something else?

[dyir]

Honestly, I'm not entirely certain. My, rather vague, intention is that once all three books are written to edit the crap out of it and then publish it by some means. But I haven't given it a whole lot of thought beyond that, as it is still two years in the future, at the very least. It would be nice to have in an actually published form, however.

Well, if you'd like to hear them, I have several suggestions. I can share the general gameplan I have for myself with you via e-mail, and some supporting research I've been doing.

If you're interested, just reply as such to the e-mail I just sent you.

I'm so excited for you Rob! Yay!
