Years of thinking through plot line, living with the characters - I'd think a sense of loss was normal. But the sense of freedom, having it all down in first draft - isn't that a wonderful feeling? Congratulations!

Way to go, Aric! I think the end of any project you've really fallen in love with can feel kind of bittersweet. But it's a great accomplishment!

Congratulations! You probably are going to miss your characters, if you spent so much time with them for so long. Can anyone say "sequel"?
