Mine was 87 when she died and nursing homes are sad. Glad to hear you are moving into the next phase of your life. Look forward to reading more. Barb<br /><br />www.barbwhitti.blogspot.comB.

That's why I have beta readers -- if they tell me it's ridiculous, I can re-write, but I feel like I'm too close to the novel to know.Guineverehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058786129073896210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763986035399864296.post-76880505490789952582010-02-16T01:57:35.211-08:002010-02-16T01:57:35.211-08:00My ending was finished months ago, it is the middl...My ending was finished months ago, it is the middle chapters who are giving me the runaround.

I had such a hard time ending it - I knew in my head exactly how I wanted things to happen, but for whatever reason I kept procrastinating and putting it off. When I finally sat down and got to it, it was like I had to push-push-push myself to just get it done! Good luck and just DO IT! <br /><br />http://thelittleblondegirl.blogspot.comJessica Strassnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05143656840852733857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763986035399864296.post-36336978099595570302010-02-09T19:48:59.893-08:002010-02-09T19:48:59.893-08:00I enjoyed visiting your blog

I always feel great finishing something and even if it doesn't quite work out, just the knowledge that I have something in its entirety to work with and make better is really motivating.

You can always go back and tweak it about 30 times until you are satisfied. (I'm getting pretty happy with my ending and I've only revised it 29 times.) Good luck.
