UPDATE: More folks crossing the finish line creating inspiration as they do. Here’s this today from R.m. Elliott over in the Zero Draft Thirty Facebook group:
FADE OUT: Wow crazy day. This thing just wouldn’t stop. Even when a new ending interrupted my nap yesterday and possessed me today. I don’t outline, for better or worse, I am married to the idea of following my muse. This ZD30 she did not disappoint. My fellow OUTLAWS never disappoint. I’ll still be around to cheer on and complain about Andy swerving on and off the trail. But for now, FADE OUT means I go play with my 6 year old. Be well, be blessed, be writing. ONWARD OUTLAWS ONWARD!!!
Not surprised to see this level of energy, something which naturally happens as a writer heads into Act Three, gets the scent of FADE OUT, and just plow through those final pages.
As witness to the power of Act Three, today’s recipient of the Trumbo Award is R.m. Elliott!
Onward!
