And yes, I’m still looking for my ending. Actually, I’m beginning to wonder if this draft even has an ending. I’ve been holding out hope that the longer I have to wait for it, the more brilliant it will be when I find it. This might be a tad unrealistic of me. Maybe there is no brilliant discovery to be found. In fact, I’m starting to fear I’m just going to get to a point where I type <insert ending here> and be done.

And I’m out.
