It is done! My Sheppard H/C holiday exchange story has been written.

Finishing any story is a happy occasion but this one in particular leaves me incredibly relieved. The more I wrote, the more I thought I would never get it done, at least not before November. I honestly think this was the hardest story I ever wrote. There were so many possibilities with this story that I wasn't sure where it was trying to go. At one point I thought I was going to have to write several alternate endings because I couldn't decide how this story should end.

But it is done. The words are down and now all I have to worry about are the edits :D

Good heavens! You sure work quickly. Congrats on the story. Now I just have to bide my time until it can be read.

I wish it had been quick. This story was determined to drag. At one point I had to rewrite it, and at several other points I thought I would have to rewrite it again :P

And thanks :D It's so nice to know it's done and that I now only have to edit. I seem to prefer editing over actually writing, which is odd as once upon a time it used to be the other way around - loved the writing part, hated the editing part.

I'm gong to join you in a happy dance as that means I have one of your stories to look forward to....I'll sit here patiently and wait....is it ready yet?

YAY! This is great news. With working and RL, it's hard to squeeze in time to write, but I was hoping if given earlier enough, people would find ways to get fic done with room to spare. See, now the pressure's gone! And if a beta does suggest changes, you don't feel like you have to do them in two days or something.

WOOT! I'm happy for you :D

Thank ye :D I've never been more relieved to have a story done. I... pretty much have no life, so plenty of time to write. But don't let having plenty of time fool you. There's always something that tries to get in the way. For me, it's usually lack of motivation. This time it was a lot of plot issues. But that it's written won't stop leaving me a puddle of relieved goo :D

Yay! Isn't being finished (well, almost) such a wonderful feeling? I'm reveling in it right now.

Best feeling ever! :D

Yes:D Come, December! Quickly, now!

Holy cow! Good for you. I've barely started mine. :(

Well, I wanted to get my story done before November in time for NaNo. So I started on it ASAP. I really pushed through this sucker, and though it's done there's going to be a lot of editing in my future.

Congratulations! :) Mine is currently stuck like a really stuck thing. *g*

Thank you :D

We need the mental equivalent of a cattle prod :/ As I told Linziday I had to push through mine, so though it's done, there will be much, much editing. Muuuuuuuch editing.
