WIP Diary: We're Through!

[melissawyatt]

You know why? Because I finally finished This Damned Book!!! That's right, at 9:00 last night, this monstrous, out-of-control thing finally wrapped up. I'm thinking it might have one of the longest, most drawn-out endings in YA history, but I don't care. I love it. It makes me happy to see it all tied up in dozens of pretty pink ribbons

Reading this post makes a wonderful start for my day. I'm so happy for you, Melissa! You are downright inspiring.

[melissawyatt]

Aw, thank you!

Dang! That's a big ol' parcel of words! I'm glad you've reached the end.

Next round, you need to totally put some raccoons in. Because why not.

[melissawyatt]

In five hundred pages, i ought to certainly be able to find room for a raccoon!

HOORAY for you! Congratulations on finishing TDB! YAY! And for the record, I for one will care about your characters and the story because I have cared about your characters and story in your previous novels. Celebrate your success!!!! WOO!!!!

[melissawyatt]

You are sweet! I plan to celebrate tonight by making myself some M&M cookies and letting myself actually watch some TV. I have been in TV denial for too long!

I love confetti! Thanks! (I'll make the kids vacuum it up.)

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!! So thrilled to hear this, Melissa. And that is one enticing countdown.

[melissawyatt]

Thank you, Amy! I was thinking I might actually use that list--or something like it--in my cover letter.

[amygreenfield]

That's a great idea.
