Being 3/5 of the way done feels amazing, and it occurred to me just tonight that the rest of this novel could be completed in the same “In novel” day, or at least a few days. It is that close to climax and resolution.
The Remedy must be found, and Estil’s experiments are close to completion, which will allow the final villain to claim the power that has been his from the beginning. Natalsa must be put in danger, and the hero must come. But it is uncertain if that hero is herself, or another person will be there to aid her in becoming who she once was.
It’s feeling good, like something sliding into a groove that was meant just for said item. I am beginning to feel like this will work, and work well. Natalsa of the Brim could be the novel that sells, and sells quickly.
This entire thing has been like long distance running, pacing yourself and saving that last burst of energy for the finish line. It’s far away, but at last I can see it.
