I wrapped up the first draft of the short story I’ve been working on yesterday. It’s topped out at about 3500 words that I’m quite happy with but when I get stuck into the second draft I’ve got a few changes to make and I’d like to add a few words at the beginning of the story as well to explain the situation a little better. I’ve got to add some detail in as well, some of it is a little vague in places.
I’ve had a couple of days off of AVG as I’m a little stuck as to how to connect where I am now and where I want to be to build to the ending. It’s actually bugging me quite a lot so hopefully I’ll find a solution soon.
It feels good getting a draft completed, even if it is only a short story. Feels like progress 🙂

There’s always something satisfying when completing a story, even a short one. 🙂
It is, it’s been a while since I’ve wrapped a story up 🙂
Recently I’ve been writing a lot of shorts (some would call it “flash fiction” since it’s less than 1000 words) and with the completion of each, I get something I could only call a writing high. Soon as one’s done I’m itching to start another.
That writing high is a great feeling 🙂
