Well, I envy that you wrote The Bone Palace, man. 'Cause that fuckin' ROCKS.;)

This was definitely what you'd call a Trudge, overall. But I'm really, really happy to be done.

Great googly moogly! I just remembered the predicament Chess was in at the end of Ch. 17! And now this is the END???!

Congratulations on the draft!

Oh, it's gonna take a ton of editing. But for now, I'm just eating roasted cauliflower and getting caught up on Avatar: The Last Airbender.

I think that last chapter contains some of my worst writing ever. Luckily, it'll be gone before you have to see it.;)
