Draft done?
"Done" is such a weird word. Technically, I could say I've finished a draft. There's a beginning, middle, and ending to the story. But I'm not quite done fiddling with it. Things are still quite a mess, a result of the slapdash method of writing I employed for this particular piece at the beginning, rather than my usual meticulous planning. So I've still got a little bit of hammering to do to get the pieces to fit. Hammering and sewing. But all the pieces are there, I hope. Maybe that means I'm "revising," rather than "writing." At least, I'd like to think so.

I think Ben is right--the first post-Clarion draft is the toughest. Took me until December 31 to finish mine (and it sucked--it's buried on the hard drive, protected by a password). It's been much easier since then.
