You heard it here first:
There are no sweeter words in the English language than the following two:
THE END.
As of 10:15 this evening, the first draft of The Exile's Daughter is FINISHED. I was so exhilirated, so overwhelmed, I nearly burst into tears. I don't recall being this emotional when I finished the first draft of The Host, but there you go. I am riding high right now.
The final numbers, for the curious:
97,172 words
440 pages in standard manuscript format (340 in my draft format)
18 chapters, cut into three sections.
I did it. I really really did it.
