Commence happy dance.

Well, it's official. The first draft of my novel is done. Now I get to edit and start book 2. I am so happy. I have put on my hapy record (Neil Diamond's Hot August Night) and have been dancing for the last ten minutes. This is an auspicious occasion. I have never finished anything before. So. Official First draft page count: 199 (single spaced and non formatted). Official first draft word count: 100,699. Brilliance. there is a lot I need to add in, and pssibly rewrite but I am looking forward to it. I am just happy to have it done. I did about 11,000 words today overall. which...maybe...like 15-20 pages? I'm not sure I was in the zone so I didn't count.

Duck Norris would be so proud. So, now back to my happy dance and you back to regularly scheduled programming
