This post is part of Lexa Cain's bloghop, Celebrate the Small Things (Lexa has just taken it over from VikLit who has hosted it for the last 2 years). Head on over there to join up!
So, what am I celebrating this week?
I finished my book! Yes, I finally managed to write those two amazing little words: The End. I know there is a lot of work to do in terms of editing, but for now, I'm done. I'm taking a few days off before diving into edits on last year's NaNo project and plan to enjoy them wholeheartedly.
Tonight we went to see a VIP in action. Sirrocco is a Very Important Parrot. He is one of only 125 Kakapo left in the world and has been named an ambassador for conservation because he prefers people to other Kakapo… Good for highlighting the plight of an endangered species, but not so great for breeding more Kakapo…. Isn't he just beautiful? And look at those feet!
What are you celebrating this week?
Congratulations on finishing your book! That's a huge accomplishment. Enjoy your days off. Edits can be a challenge, and I hope they go well for you!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the finish - big accomplishment! Have a wonderful relaxing weekend.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!!! The number of NANO projects I've actually completed is SIGNIFICANTLY smaller than the number of NANO projects I've crossed the 50k mark on without being anywhere near the end. It's an incredibly important milestone in the life of a book that makes it, I'd say, about a billion times more likely to actually go through the full process of editing and releasing to the world. So, yes- huge and awesome congrtas to you!
ReplyDeleteYay! Congrats on finishing. And the VIP is very cute!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing!! I'm so happy for you!! Good luck on editing the NaNo one. Mr. VIP Kakapo is a parrot? I guess he has parrot colors, but he looks kind of like a kiwi bird to me. I hope you have a wonderfully relaxing weekend - you deserve it! :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on finishing your book!! Writing "The End" is so satisfying. That's an interesting parrot. Enjoy your relaxing weekend and good luck with your edits!
ReplyDeleteHoly Moly, you finished. I still have a hundred to go. Jealous for sure.
ReplyDeleteYeah, the book is written! Good luck with edits.
