True Path/New Path

Two days ago I finished a chapter of my novel. For over three years I have been working on a chick lit novel inspired by the events in my life in the summer of 2002. Parts of it are quite autobiographical and this particular chapter was the most. It dealt with some very painful events in my life and over the six months it took to write the first draft I often felt anxiety, fear and pain when I picked up my pen to write. But the chapter was pivotal to the action, so I pressed on.

Well, it's now done! And when I wrote the last word, I thought to myself, I think this baby is going to make it full term! It's the first time I truly felt, heart and soul, that I would finish this book.
