YOU GUYS, MY [livejournal.com profile] apocabigbang DRAFT IS DONE.

I mean, it's going to need some heavy editing - mostly for tone and pacing, but also for other stuff; I wrote it in a bunch of sittings, and didn't actually read over it each time, so there are probably a lot of words, phrases, etc. that I've overused. (God, this is such a rough draft.) And I need to make sure the plot actually makes sense, that there are no plot holes or stuff I've left out or stuff I've repeated, and I want to go over the plot and make sure I like it and there's nothing I should change or could do better. (Like the romance angle, which I was kind of like - should it be moving faster? Slower? Is it totally uneven? Should it be overt, or kind of unspoken like in Mnemonic Devices, OH GOD, SHOULD IT BE GEN? But I like where it ended up, I think, so I just need to go over the stuff leading up to that.) And it'll undoubtedly need a line edit for grammar/spelling/typos/whatever. And after get all that done, I think I'll send it off to beta :P

BUT. IT IS DONE, AND FINISHED, AND I CAN SEND IT OFF AND MAYBE, LIKE, NOT LOOK AT IT FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS, WOULDN'T THAT BE NICE?

I think I'll start drinking now.

Next up: [livejournal.com profile] help_haiti fic, and then post-Yuletide fics and [livejournal.com profile] halfamoon and [livejournal.com profile] purimgifts, and then maybe stuff that's just for fun! It could happen.
