Finally...

Rough draft complete.  I never want to see it again.

Well, until I have to sit down, figure out what needs to be done, and fix it.

Now to bed.

Congrats!

Thanks.

Is it wrong of me to dread the re-write though? I fear that it might end up being a virtual re-drafting of the whole thing.

Nothing is "wrong"--but rewrites can be a lot of work. Many writers like to have something down to deal with, even if there is an extensive rewrite ahead. I know I sure do. (In the process of a massive rewrite of 50k of something.)

Congrats on finishing the draft! Go start something else before worrying about the edits on this one.

I jumped back in on this novel that I'd started back last Nano. There's almost a chance that I might, just maybe, have this draft finished before this year's Nano. Not, that I'm sure I'm going to participate this year.

Of course, I seem to say that every year, right before I dive in and just write something.

That sounds like a great thing to work on.

I, of course, *will* be NaNo. This will be my fifth year as municipal liaison for the region (last year, got a co-ML, which helped considerably) and my seventh NaNo. However, I may not decide what I'm writing until November 1. . . .
