Finished!

[vaneramos]

I finished Chapter 23 of Pilgrim's Cross at about 9:30 this evening, did a word count and found it had reached 50,470. The count has been verified. I'm a winner! Yay.

I'm not done writing, though. About another eight chapters will be required to finish the story.

Congratulations to all my friends who participated in NaNoWriMo. Especially DD, I am so proud of you!

Special thanks to everyone who encouraged me along the way, including those who commented in my fiction journal and in person. I hope you'll stick with me and kick me in the butt if I get distracted from finishing this novel.

Thanks very much! Your words and work have encouraged me. Tomorrow I have to ride the bus over to check my mailbox, and I hope your book has arrived!
