Rough draft done!
And hoo, boy, is it rough!
This is for the fantasybigbang project, which I talked about here. My original timeline went out the window late last month, but I still managed to squeak out my rough draft by the deadline!
I have until July 25 to try and make it readable. Honestly, I'm really not sure where to begin. The story that I finished was not the same ( Read more... )

//Now the only thing that panics me is knowing that other people are going to end up reading it.

I find that odd, because I never felt that way with my scientific writing.//
I feel a lot more naked with my fiction too. Maybe it's because you tend to put yourself into it, whether you mean to or not. (On the plus side, most people won't be able to tell that.)

Aw, thanks for thinking of me. I'm...managing. I've had little response to my job applications, save for one phone interview with Roche in New Jersey (but I learned last week that the position had been cancelled).
I'm thinking that going back to school is the best option. I've had one 20-year career already, so I'm still young enough to take a year or so to retrain and have another 20-year career. I just have to make ends meet until then!
