I FINISHED MY NOVEL!!
This time, it's not an April Fool's joke. I FINISHED MY NOVEL!!! Just wrote the last words a few minutes ago and grinned as I pressed 'save'. Draft 1 is complete at 72,075 words, which I already know will change a zillion times.
But right now, it's pure excitement.
Anyway, I'm off to read Splashback. I'M SO HAPPY!

I already said this on Twitter, but...EEEEEEEEEEEEEE! That's so exciting and awesome! And you totally convinced me to get Scrivener with that screenshot. *goes to purchase if not too expensive. If too expensive, asking mother for it as a graduation present. *

YAAAAAAAAAAAAY, CONGRATS!!! :-D
And that screenshot made me really jealous. I've never even SEEN the colour green on mine. It just looks like this:

LIZZY THIS IS SO EXCITING OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait until it's awesome and beautiful and perfect. Which I'm sure it already is, but awesome/beautiful/perfect for a first draft is different.
No matter what, finishing the first draft is the best feeling ever.

Lol, that's basically my response. Congratulations!!!!! Scrivener sounds awesome! Who knew the motivation to turn a red bar green would be so driving? We just got a free month trial!Amanda wrote:I already said this on Twitter, but...EEEEEEEEEEEEEE! That's so exciting and awesome!

@Constance Yes!! Thank you. I'm reading!!
@Amanda Yay! Let me know what you think of Scriv if you get it! I LOVE my word meter.
@Andre Thank you! The green is awesome. You can do it! *stares at 130,000 words in awe*
@Taryn Thank you!! And of COURSE Splashback is a reward! I'm LOVING it!
@Renee Thank you!! Enjoy the trial and remember to be patient with it! It's gonna seem overwhelming at first. xD
@Shahira Thank you!! Oh yes, it's going in the drawer for a bit. But I'm very excited to pull it out again later and edit (who, me? excited to edit?) because I have so many ideas for it already. xD

Re: I FINISHED MY NOVEL!!
I love it! I would post a screenshot of my word count meter if I knew how to take one on a Mac.

@Amanda Full screen shots are shift-command-3. Partial screen shots are shift-command-4, and you select the part of the screen you want to screen shot.
