Last night (late) I completed my first draft of my latest book. It is 220 pages (about 40,000 words) of prime-time writing. And I'm sick of it already.
Next week I'll be sending this draft to the editors and will likely begin rewriting later in March.
I always feel relieved when I finish a first draft. It feels a bit like saying goodbye to a friend who has been living at the house for five months. After a while, you just want to say goodbye and get back to watching Hogan's Heroes.
Well . . . or The Andy Griffith Show. I'm ready for some Don Knotts.
