I finished the final draft of my novel at the end of October. I wrote it longhand which is a first for me. I needed to bypass my critical mind and allowed my creative mind to take over. It worked. It took me seven months to get through it though as it brought up many issues. Some weeks I couldn't write anything because I was too triggered to do so.

I'm now ready to type all of those pages into my computer and my software program Scrivener.
