So I managed to write my first draft for the novel i've planned on writing for a while. I wrote 70k words in 2 months, and three days ago I finished.
I really felt like this piece was my baby. I loved writing it, loved hanging out with the characters and have the every day writing routine become part of my life.
So yesterday I read the whole thing from beginning to end. It felt short and I felt like there was something missing. Maybe more descriptions, maybe more dialogue etc. Some parts I loved, some parts I disliked.
I feel terrible and worried about how to proceed... Any tips? How was your first drafts ever?
