Finally!

14:15PM Central Afghan Time

I said I would finish “Glass Ceiling” by the end of November. I had no idea, no idea, that it would run as long as it did. It is now officially the longest story I’ve ever written, well past 37,000 words, something like twice the size that I originally anticipated.

I did it. I had to write 5,000 words a day for three days straight (managing five hours of sleep a night), but I’m done. Of course, that’s the first draft, I still have to key it in and do the necessary polish, which tends to add a little bulk as I flesh out things I did too sparsely the first time through.

A week, maybe, before I start posting installments.
