Endicott Books

I can see it. There it is. The finish line. I finished writing my final chapter and I’m going back through my manuscript, filling in the missing pieces – the unwritten chapters I’ve held with mere descriptions, waiting for the right time to give them life. There are only a few words left to write in my rough draft before I can begin my first rewrite. I’m excited as I approach this finish line but sad, at the same time. You see, I’ll miss my characters. I’ve grown attached to them. I’ve seen them grow. They cry and I cry. They laugh and I laugh. They feel anger and pain and I do too. That’s what happens when you’re a writer. You see the world through your characters’ eyes. I’ll have two more books with some of these characters and for that I feel blessed. I’ll have another finish line. My goal is still to have this book published in 2015. I’m definitely on track.
