All Things Being Equal in Time

"Dear LJ,

Sorry I haven't updated in like a billion years..."

...but I have been busy. Very busy. Busier and more fulfilled than I ever have been. Why? Because the first book is done.

Jon and I started writing it a year ago. Before that, we had spent about a year and a half planning and discussing it. And now, it is done.

This is huge. I know me. I mean... I don't finish things! I get excited about an idea, play with it, throw myself into it and then... nothing. I lose it somewhere, or get distracted by a new idea. That's been my MO for years. But this time, I wasn't by myself. I had my husband to cheer me on and keep me going, while I did the same for him when needed. We supported each other throughout the whole process. And boy, did we learn lots! About writing, about each other, a bit about life in general.

And we never gave up. It's finished. The hard part is over.

So what are we going to do now?

We're going to take a little break, relax, goof off a bit, and then get to work on the next one. Because the hard part is over.
