I joined Beehaw specifically hoping to get in on the ground floor of the growing writing community here, but I have to admit I haven’t had much to say.

So, for the other folks checking this community once a day or so to see what’s being posted, “Hi!”

I’m enthusiastically nearing the end of the first draft of my first novel, and pretty excited to jump into revisions once that’s done.

I aspire to be traditionally published, though I’ve heard how unlikely that is for a first novel over and over, so I’m (primarily) viewing this first novel as a learning experience, and it’s very much been one of those.

I’m interested to hear where others are at.

    That sounds challenging and enjoyable. I’ve never written nonfiction for more than the length of a college essay, but it seems inherently more difficult to me, but it’s good that you seem to have a supportive team already lined up to help you get over the finish line.

    Good luck to you! (And what’s the topic, if you are comfortable sharing at this time?)
