One Last Bit Of News

I FINISHED THE ROUGH DRAFT OF MY WIP LAST NIGHT!!!!

Yes, it is true. It is also true that it is rough. Very rough. But it is done.

It is also the longest thing I have ever written. For those not in the know, I usually write picture books (which are almost always under 1,000 words). This seems to be mid-grade. (That would be a chapter book for 8-12 year olds.) It is over 11,000 words! Okay, so that is not that many in the MG world. But for me... Whooohooo!

So now the work of revision begins. The question is, do I take a break and work on something else, or do I dive right in?
