I finished reading my rough draft of The Alternative, in the process moving around some scenes, cutting a bunch of them, and generally trimming it down from 127 pages to 115.
There are some lines that made me chuckle, even though I wrote them. And some funny-awkward situations. And, in the last few pages, I found myself caring very much that Kiki gets what she's looking for. And the ending made me happy.
So, in all, I think it does not suck. For a first draft, that's all you can ask.
Now I'll probably try to get a few reactions from friends...
