Nearly there. Just a little while longer. Currently I'm writing the probably the most difficult and demanding section of the novel: the big property damaging battle in downtown Amsterdam.
It involves so many moving parts which have to, at some point, all fit together. There are tons of characters who are crutial to the plot who have all take a step or two away from where I originally intended them to be and it all adds up to work slowing down to the speed of a crawl.
I have to proceed with caution and reverence.
I believe (and this is a VERY rough estimate), that I have around 30 pages to write left before I meet up with the pre-written ending, which itself will have to be edited slightly. Then, i'll be done. Finished.
Until the second draft, that is.
If there are spelling mistakes in this post, i'm sorry. I'm fighting effects of a serious lack of sleep. Or rather a need for sleep encroaching on me.
I have no idea how i'm going to celebrate that special day. Maybe, after long hard i'll treat myself to a lie-in. Goddess knows i've earned it. Though i doubt i'll be doing that. Food and a small amount of alcohol with probably be involved in any post completion celebrations.
Anywho, just was wanted to give you proof that i'm still alive and still beavering away. Crawling isnt standing still.
Now i'm away to bed.
Goodnight world!!
