I can go to bed happy.

Chapter 66 is done. Thank goodness. Longest chapter ever for me...4200 words. (Nothing compared to junediamanti and mariannelee, but for me, wow.) It did not flow as easily as other chapters have, but I am happy with the finished piece, or as happy as I'll ever be.

Much to do, and then to bed.

ETA: My goodness, I already have a review. *boggles*

In timeline terms, there is actually about three hours left of action. And I now have 15,000 words done. The part I've written will be a lot more when I have it polished becaue I write a very outlined first draft, then pad it and embellish it.

After a three week dry spell, this sort of motoring is rather delightful. I've done 6,000 words since Monday!

That final plateau bit is hard, because you realise you have to get this bit right. Plus it's easy to whinge on about having to write it, but scary to know what life will be without something I've been working on since November 2003.

6,000 words? Wowza, congrats!

I really want to finish...this is holding up so many other things that I want to write. It's been over a year, after all!

I have to be certain I get the romantic balance right in this last plateau...I don't want to have people rushing headlong at each other, but I don't want the regular readers to be angry either.
