It's...it's finished!

I am filled with unutterable joy, because I have just reached a milestone in my life.   Some of you have already reached it, and so I know that you will be able to rejoice with me.
I didn't make fifty thousand words, so I guess that it doesn't qualify as a novel, but 42,281 words was all that I had for Christmas at the Tittletons.  Perhaps when I begin to edit it I will add more.
So what if it is not technically a novel?  I still finished my first 'chapter book.'  And it was a lot of fun to write, even if it was hard sometimes.  Thankfully I already knew the basics of the plot, as I had my previously written play to use.  But still, it's a book, and it's finished!
I am really tired, but I knew I could finish it if I stayed up, so I did, and I did!
Hallelujah!
All are welcome to applaud or cheer or whatever you do at a time like this.
Thanks ever so much for reading, and God bless,












*Ahem* small disclaimer
I am by no means comparing myself to Charles Dickens just because I put his picture up there.  I just happen to think that he was one of the greatest authors ever, and also I tried to imitate his style in CATT.  That's all.  Also I was saving that picture for the frabjous day when I would finish CATT.

    1. I think that I would like to publish it, but the editing process might take a good deal of time as I am on the verge of college. In other words, Lord willing, I'll publish it! :)
