1st Draft Complete

Well, after some 3 1/2 months I'm done with my first draft. Admittedly it took rather longer than my original guesstimate of 2-3 months, but given that my first draft weighs in at 257 (Word) pages, and 121,147 words, I don't think that's too shabby.

Having finished on Sunday, I have started the process of re-reading it. So far I think it's actually not bad. I'll probably give it a second re-reading, filling in the obvious gaps and problems, and then I will commence Editing.

I expect that the second draft phase will be more of a challenge, because I won't quite know what I'm doing, and it can theoretically go on forever :)
