It's done! I can't believe I've actually finished it. The first draft of Left of the Dial is DONE!
In the end, it clocked in at 86 pages - not quite the 110 I had in mind, but as I said before, I still have a rewrite or two to go.
Now, I just have to leave it alone and resist the urge to go back and mess with it during the next two weeks. After that, I'll start making notes for the first rewrite and see if I can make it better. Like Hemingway once said, "The first draft of anything is shit."
As for the next two weeks? My plan is to start outlining a dramatic series for BBC television. I guess that should keep me occupied.
