I've been working on this paranormal, Project X, for seven long months...lots of stress, anger, weeping and frustration because I wasn't sure I would ever see the end of this thing. It's bizarre because I really love this story and the world building but it was truly a test for me. I don't know why it was so difficult to get it done but I suppose a part of my brain feared failure. I have always pushed forward like a warrior on anything I truly wanted to do, but this particular time I was uncertain whether this was the right project for me.There are so many stories I want to pen. Most of them contemporaries but I am not afraid of change. I am not afraid of trying new genres or testing my abilities. I think in working on Project X, I learned that I create my own limitations. If I had just buckled down and written instead of fretting over things I can't control--I would have been in a better place sooner. Tonight, I was able to send out my pages to be critiqued and edited. I'm really proud of myself and my accomplishments. I think this is the first awesome milestone of 2010 and I wouldn't have done it without the support of my friends and Mr. Right.
Tomorrow I start back up on the Italian story I'm so in love with. Hopefully this year I'll see these projects find a happy publishing home. :)
I'm so glad you got it done!!! Now for the big sale! WOOT!
Yeah, let's cross our fingers that happens. LOL
Yay Jax!! Congrats on finishing :)
Awesome! Isn't it such a huge relief when you have something that's readable? What a great milestone, and the year is still young. Keep us updated! I'm excited to find out what happens with this proposal
Thanks Jeannie! You know I'd let you know! :)
