Trudging Forward

I cannot believe it has been a week since my last post!  I have finished through chapter 11 and I am maybe a third of the way through 12.  It seems like no matter how much I write, I am moving at a snail's pace.  I am hoping that after I finish the first draft completely, the reward of writing 'The End' will make all this suffering worth it.  I am so anxious to some reviews of my writing that I keep pondering whether to publish some chapters online, but I feel in my gut that it would be a mistake.  I don't even have any followers on my blog at this point! (except my daughter)  Oh well...I will trudge on and hope that the end result is as great a read as I anticipate.
