Before this river becomes an ocean ...

I finished my final draft of a feature story I’ve been working on for the past month last night. The final draft was the tenth revision of it. I love writing and I consider it to be the one thing that I can do reeeeally well (okay, okay, I’m really great at pretending to be busy at my cube. I’m also really great at eating, being bossy, and making faces at people when they turn around.) It is such a reality check to have to actually WORK at it. I’ve put in over 60 hours on this project, and chances are I won’t get paid for it. I guess this is my definition of faith - when you’ll do something knowing that there may be nothing on the other end, but always hoping for the best.
