hard to wrap my head around how old MiR is already. thank you for bringing this post back around. i needed it to remind myself how non-linear novel work often is, how hard it can be to fathom a finished product when you’re still knee deep in the rough, unfinished thing.
Honestly, even though this post is already a bit older, reading this as someone who hopes to finish their first book this year, this is really motivating. Just seeing someone going through that struggle of sticking with it and coming out on the other side. Hope I’ll also be able to write a post like that eventually.
