I Can See It! The End Is Near!
« on: June 04, 2008, 02:03:23 PM »

Don't you love it when you're writing a story and you're two or three chapters away from it being finished?  I get really giddy and excited and can't wait for it to be done so I can move on to something fresh and new!

Yes, I'm in a good mood right now because I got over the hump in Left and Leaving, lol

oh yeah! That is my favorite part! (well besides the very begining when you get to set up a brand new story, I love that too!) But when you get over the second act slump and all you have left is the exciting final act? That rocks and you just get all full of adrenaline. Woohoo for the end, and being finished! Good luck Steph!

Go finish so we can have a finished story happy dance party! I know we just had one for Mare's, but you can never have too many finished story parties.

Thanks guys!  I love the end of the story roll, if only that would keep up throughout the writing of the entire thing, eh?  haha

I did that with Cinderella. Popped both that one and Whitmore Lake out in like 3 months. But yeah, I wish I could keep that up all the time. But then, the end wouldn't be as exciting if that were the case.

Awesome Steph! I'm nowhere near being done with anything and I have quite a few bumps to go through before I see any light at the end of the tunnel.

lol I just got started. so the only thing I have to look forward to is that point where the funness of starting a new story wears off and you realize that you still have sooooo far to go!
