When I finished my first book I walked outside, looked up at the sky, and held my hands out, waiting for the money to fall. I actually did this to mark the occasion because, although I was truly happy to be finished, there is also a dark joy in the cynicism of the whole process.
Enjoy your wins along the way! I’m not too far behind you in that I have a complete novel, though more revision and editing needs to happen before I can find a publisher, not to mention all the marketing and book launch efforts that follow. Celebrate every win and enjoy the process. Congratulations!
Wow! Your journey to getting your book done and done and published has been a great learning experience for all of us! I admire your determination to not only do all that needs to be done, but to walk us subscribers through it all. If I am fortunate to get a deal someday, I will be armed with this knowledge. Getting the deal is only the beginning! Thank you for your dedication to us.
Congratulations! This is such a massive step. I love the idea of 'I will let it surprise me'.

Congratulations! My book has been done but the work isn’t. I have to decide about an offer from a publisher. A good kind of problem. Write on!
