I have just finished writing an intense cliff-hanger of an ending to my second Redcliffe novel Love Kills (The Redcliffe Novels). It was amazing!

Having finished editing a separate manuscript, I was thinking about what needed to be done on my current WIP. I had written the first draft of Love Kills (The Redcliffe Novels), but was unhappy with the way I had finished it. There had to be more.

The Thrill of being a Writer

Well it seems that my muse agreed, and all day today, while doing my menial household chores, the story has unfolded in my head. As soon as my daughter was in bed, I had to get on the computer. Two and a half hours later, and the result is one finished first draft manuscript, and one very excited author! I do love this job.

The crazy thing is, I am actually physically shaking from the exertion of writing that particular part of my novel. The adrenaline is pumping through me, and I’m on a high. Who needs drugs? Just write! I could happily write all night now, but I know that I need a break, and my muse needs to rest.

No wine to celebrate with

The only downside is I don’t have any wine in the house to celebrate with. Never mind. Once my book is published and people are enjoying it, my current task will be complete. And by that time I will be on book 3, which promises to be even more exciting and intense.

Have you written anything that left you physically exhausted? Or have you read anything that gave you the same effect? Please share in the comments.
