It's an awesome feeling.....Yay for the finish line! It's an awesome feeling...and at the same time, sort of frustrating because you're just sooooo close and life has that way of obstructing writing-time...I have to say ditto on the be realistic comments (and the ice cream encouragement!). With the chaotic end of school, pre-trip schedule, you don't want to overwhelm yourself...but don't worry. You've made it this far and all that matters is that you finish, be it June 15th or July 4th.Christiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02487181841738485046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33774292.post-61633316423630474652007-05-16T22:33:00.000-04:002007-05-16T22:33:00.000-04:00I think you owe it to yourself to add the time you...I think you owe it to yourself to add the time you need to have it done to your satisfaction.NH Knitting Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00750054803211058322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33774292.post-39438895160549823422007-05-16T21:19:00.000-04:002007-05-16T21:19:00.000-04:00First off, smack yourself upside the head for even...First off, smack yourself upside the head for even CONSIDERING the delete key, you silly, silly woman.<BR/><BR/>Second, celebrate with chocolate that you've come so far and can see the finish line.<BR/><BR/>Third, depending on that thing called reality, you'll need to make the final call on what's realistic. Sometimes I personally have to push to the end and make it a fast break to the finish line. Other times it's good to take a little break and breathe a bit before that last stretch so you aren't tempted to hit the delete key. (Maybe the trek will help you get some distance?) <BR/><BR/>YOU make the call. Just make it, print it out on neon paper and plaster it on your wall so it's official. Then tell us all about it!<BR/><BR/>Way to go, girl!Annette Lyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12493583432919249814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33774292.post-27262188555303608402007-05-16T15:38:00.000-04:002007-05-16T15:38:00.000-04:00It's just a goal. First you need to go eat some La...It's just a goal. First you need to go eat some Larry Parcia ice cream and then just take your time working out a different date. Don't rush any rewriting -- it's never worth it -- unless you write humor and people like your typos! (okay, your editor should catch those;however, I seem to catch a typo every other book I read -- not that it matters...) Anyway, make sure your next date is realistic and gives you plenty of rewrite time.

(Celebratory Cherry Garcia is allowed but only a small/med bowlful- yes only one)<BR/>Take one more deep breath and consider what you want out of the next several weeks... kids only finish the grade that they are in once (ideally) and you MAY never get/have to do a trek again in your life. Will getting done a few weeks earlier benefit you (emotionally or financially) more than what you might miss out on('miss' or make too stressful to really enjoy)?
