Okay. Tomorrow It's Time To Get Really Real

Over the last few days I have been reading over and editing the last 100 or so pages of The Silver Girl. This was a great experience because I was able to improve the manuscript and making changes allowed me to get into voice. But now, it is time for me to do the hardest work on the book. I have to write the ending.

No computer for me tomorrow. The reason I will just use pen and paper is because with the computer I can get frustrated and delete whole passages. With pen and paper, I will just turn to a new sheet. If I drink of class of water and cool off, I can return to the pages I abandoned because they still exist.

I know I won't be able to sleep at night. I am so excited about moving forward. Don't ask me why I feel like I have to wait until the morning, but that's just an odd Tayari thing. It's only 5:30 and I want to go to bed now so I can fall alseep and wake up and it will be tomorrow.

Wish me luck.
