It Is Finished...and a Hint of Upcoming Awesomeness

Jan 26, 2011

I. AM. DONE.


Whew! As of 12:43 a.m. this morning, Devolutionaries is finished and ready for beta readers. Which of course means it's not really finished, but it's finished enough that I'm calling it done. I celebrated with an exhausted "woot" and went straight to bed.

But now I'm awake enough for a full-on WOOT!!! And even a YAY!! And I'll add a YEE-HAW!! for good measure.

I'm afraid that's about all the blog post you're gonna get from me today...except for me to casually and slyly hint that there is much upcoming awesomeness on this blog. Featuring awesome prizes. And warm fuzzy feelings. And you.

It's gonna rock your socks off.

Woo hoo!! If you need a beta, I'd be happy to help out!

Oh my gosh, I just read your "About Me" and found out we graduated from the same college! I graduated in 2008 and studied French, so it's possible that we might have taken a class together. Small world, huh?

Congratulations on finishing your project! I'm looking for beta readers too and would be thrilled to swap with you, though I'm not an expert on YA sci-fi - my book is historical fiction.

Yay! Congratulations on finishing!

If you ever need a beta-reader (for Devolutionaries or any other novel), I'd be more than happy to help. I read a lot of YA fantasy/sci-fi, and loved the little teaser you've posted for a blogfest a while back.

And I'm looking forward to the upcoming awesomeness.

Well done! I hope you're enjoying it for some time to come.

Tamara Hart Heiner said...

good for you! That's so exciting! I'm afraid when I finish a first draft, it's nowhere near ready for beta readers! They don't get to see it until the second draft. (You would not want to see a first draft of mine. Rough. Very rough.)
