We Have a Winner

At 94, 268 words, my second draft is complete. I hope round three is shorter. But it's going to have to wait until I've had some sleep.

19 comments:

  1. I am so proud of you!!!

    Dang, them is a lot of words!

    Enjoy your well deserved rest.

  4. Hooray, Myrna. Wonderful news. I know how that goes -- losing sleep because I'm too busy with those late-night/early morning revisions. Sleep well!

  5. Thanks, everyone! I've slept, chaperoned a field trip this morning, and we're taking the kids to the Clark Country Fair this afternoon. Is anyone else going?

  6. Congratulations! So, what was your reward again? (Aside from getting it finished, that is.)
    We're heading to the fair tomorrow. Today would have been better, but oh well. Have fun!

  10. Shelley, I almost doubled the word count from my first draft.

    Krista, Robyn still hasn't finished. The deadline for one of her projects was extended to tomorrow, and she left some of it to finish in the morning.

    Rorie, I didn't say what the rewards were. Robyn wanted a Webkinz, if she won. I wanted her to help me garden, if I won. The other two like working in the yard, but she really doesn't.

    And thanks, everyone, for your comments and encouragement. I love my blogging buddies. :o)

    C. Michael, thank you!

  13. Myrna, you're amazing! I wish I had half the talent you have!

  14. Oh, Wick, you have different talents than I do. That's why we used to take math and English together. Remember?
