<p>About 11 months ago, I wrote a post about a story that was almost finished.  It was the Original &#8220;<a href="http://bettiesharpe.blogspot.com/2006/08/bitter-end.html">The Bitter End</a>&#8220;.  That story, the &#8220;Untitled Sci-fi&#8221; is very close to finished.  But I still haven&#8217;t finished it.  It&#8217;s one of the stories that I mapped out and outlined before I got in touch with my inner seat-of-the-panster.  Maybe that&#8217;s why I&#8217;m having no luck finishing it&#8211;there&#8217;s no suspense left in the writing.</p>
<p>In the time since I wrote that post, I&#8217;ve written two short stories, and started on a full-length novel about which I am very excited.  But my &#8220;Untitled Sci-fi&#8221; nags at me.  So here&#8217;s my goal: I will finish that story by August 28, 2007 &#8212; a year to the day that I first complained about it.</p>
