#first drafts

LIVE

So, I think I’m to the point where about 3 or 4 more chapters, and I’ll officially be done with my first draft! This will be the first time in my LIFE I finished a first draft of something that wasn’t a fan fiction, so that’s exciting.
I find myself staring down the abyss, however. What do I do after that? I know I’ll have to go through and edit and re-write and stuff, and in a lot of ways the Patreon support is helping me do that. Because before I post the chapters there, I go through them again and clean them up a little (No major re-writes though I was trying to avoid that to keep myself from getting distracted from FINISHING it.)
So, then what? I guess I have to try and get an agent? Query letters? God, I’m so out of my depth. If anyone knows someone in the business who can give me some pointers, hit me up! I have no idea what I’m doing, and I am currently wallowing in this “So close but so far” kind of feeling. Thoughts, everyone?

Could be 5000 words in, could be 50000, my instinct is always to rewrite from the beginning xD
