Done!

315 pages. Single spaced. That's how long my book is now that it's done. Or, at least, I'm done reading it.

Of course, I say that it's done, but that doesn't mean I won't start reading it again soon or decide to do a little more cutting. There is a point about two-thirds through where I feel like, "Aha! I need to bring people here earlier!" But then I go back and try to find things to cut and I feel like everything leading up to that point is essential to the rest of the story. That doesn't meant I won't change my mind ...

So, now I'm reading all about agents and query letters. I wish I could go back to the fun part -- the writing. But if I want to sell this thing, I've got to do some not-so-fun stuff too. It's intimidating, but it's worth a shot, right?
