the end is here . . .
In a mad burst of creativity (you might say desperation *g*) spawned from days of stagnation because of my lingering cold, yesterday I worked pretty much non-stop from dawn to bedtime and--brace yourselves--FINISHED THE DAMN BOOK!!!!
Almost.
I mean, I wrote to the end, but the final scenes are a bit sketchy and need some fleshing out. But they're out of my head and into the computer and it feels soooo good! For the rest of this week, I will be polishing these final scenes, then going back to proof and clean up the rest of the ms so that I can volley this beast to NYC.
And it's rather apropos that I should finish KISS OF CRIMSON on Halloween night because that's exactly when the first scene of the book opens! Freaky!

Yay!
I started my blog on Halloween last year, and I didn't realise it until I checked to find out when it'd be one year old. LOL.

Wooo hooo on finishing! And dragging yourself out of your sickbed to do it. Way to go woman ;-)
Seriously, congrats. I'm sure it's going to rock. When do I get it? *grin*

May -- Thanks for the cheers, and congrats on your blog anniversary!
Jaci -- Thanks, and LOL on wanting to see the book. It's not quite ready for prime time, but once I smooth out the rough spots, we need to do an ARC swap. Deal?
