The Strange Feeling of Being Done

The Pumpkin Project is done.
This sounds so simple. After months of work devising puzzles, editing, rewriting and more, it's over. Just. Like. That.
Surely there must be more to do. It can't be done yet.
There is this strange feeling of loss. A feeling of 'what do I do now?'
I suppose I should savor this tiny gap, this bit of vacation. It just feels so strange, as though a good friend has moved away.
Now comes time to form a new relationship. What project is next on the list?
Three come to mind.
Capri Capers awaits a major rewrite. Maybe the rewrite doesn't need to be that drastic. Perhaps I should read through the draft and find out.
November and NaNo is a few short weeks away. I have a novel idea bouncing around in my head trying to coalesce. The outline is short. Can I turn it into 50,000 words? I will try.
Science is a love of mine. How can I not do another little science book? The Water Project is in planning stages.
So much for savoring the completion of The Pumpkin Project.
