I've finished my book
Well, the first draft anyway; completed in a blitz this afternoon. 89, 624 words in total, though that will change once I set about the re-writes.
Mark is ill - a heavy cold that's making him miserable. Bless him, he's being a man about it; whining and complaining and demanding Lemsip and hot drinks at regular intervals. He took himself off to bed and slept all afternoon which is how I was able to crash on so well and finish the thing. With perfect timing, he staggered downstairs ten minutes ago, sneezing and groaning, just as I typed out the last words of the last paragraph.
Tomorrow, I email m'agent and start work on the first re-write of the first two chapters that'll make up the submission, which is, in many ways, the worst bit, when you wonder how you could ever have written such unbelievable shit. But...
Wahay. ::waves fist feebly in the air in a half-hearted fashion:: It's done. At last. Thank GOD!

The man-flu is keeping him in bed again today, poor li'l sausage. (o:
