Day’s Reflection

Today’s the last day of the challenge! I had hoped I would be able to get all the end chapters written today but I only managed to finish the climax. Which WAS HUGE! It’s such an improvement to my previous climax. I think it still needs details and to be tweaked but guys, I’M SO EXCITED to share it with you! It still might take awhile but I hope you enjoy it if you’ve stuck around this long. lol

I still actually have quite a bit to do. Other than the last 2 chapters which is what happens after the climax and epilogue, I think the book is mostly written. I’d day overall 70% written. lol Again, there are chapters I’ve skipped but I’ll need to review them again at a later time.

I worked on it about 3 hours today, which I think is a good chunk of time. Since I wanted a bit more free time on my vacation so I decided to end the challenge early. If I feel like it, I might squeeze in more revision time today or over the weekend but for now, I’m done with the challenge. The rest of it will be optional.

Overall, I’m thrilled I kept up with the challenge and appreciated everyone’s encouragement and support! I would have honestly probably quit the first day if people didn’t let me know they were watching me. haha Yay for accountability! lol

While I didn’t hit my goal of 5 chapters a day, I’m still proud of my progress. I think next time I do this I might do it for less days. Kind of wish I had more down time to recover or mentally prepare myself to go to work. I don’t regret the time I spent working on it, but I feel like I need to find a better daily routine to help make this more sustainable.
