Guilty of sucking at last chapters!

Oh these pictures!!! My little hit men kitties, I love them!!!

Okay so I have a confession, I absolutely suck at writing last chapters! I will stall till the cows come home.

I though that by Wednesday I would be done, yeah right. Not only have I not finished the last chapter, but you could pretty much say I skipped it. Well, actually not 'pretty much', I actually did skip it.

I went ahead and wrote the damn synopsis and I even wrote a damn Epilogue! Crap that last chapter!!! I don't know what it is!


So, I decided that I'm going to motivate myself a little. When I finish this chapter (or whats left of it - it's not even much,) I'll reward myself with reading a little. Sadly I haven't read a book in at least a couple of weeks... which for me is beyond unusual.



Great... now I get to go work on that chapter... Yay! :(

I wanted to join your 50 books in 2007 club... but there's a problem, kinda. I'm reading a lot of Harlequin Intrigue since that's where I want to send this one. Let's call it research, which it is. ;) Anyways I know HQI has really short books, like 200 pages... will you make me read more than one to make it count? ;)

I'll have to post some of my funnier kitty pics that I've been saving up. :)

And why is it that endings are so hard to write? I think because we spend so much time with the characters we want to give them a fitting send off. I hate to go so far with them and fail in the last few pages or so. I just hope I get better at this as time goes on.

Vicky -- of course your Harlequins count!! I figure for every 'category' I read, there's a 500 pager to counter balance! And it's the 50 BOOK challenge, not the 50 NOVEL challenge.
I figure we're busy writers, some workings, some mothering,... so who cares how long the book is, -- as long as we're reading, and enjoying!

Good luck with that last chapter!

Thanks guys...

It really is nice to have a support system, a group to cry and complain to when your just flat out frustrated. :)

I would love to see everyone's kitty pictures!

500 pagers? What are those? ;)

The pictures are hilarious. I rush my endings, but I don't think they suck, I just worry that they come to fast (no pun intended, get your mind outta the gutter).

It's the middle I suck at.
