Sup /lit/, How do you celebrate when you've finished your

>>7585324
Whenever i used to finish a short i used to drink and smoke and have my own private party. Now i don't smoke or drink much..

But the feeling of elation is well worth the toil.

>chicken and wine
Let's talk about the kind of chicken and the kind of wine. Also, tell me about your book.

The chicken is just the cheapest sort of broiler cooked inside a bag with some turnip, carrots and onion. The wine is a Terra Cruz Cabernet Sauvignon 2014 year "vintage", a Chilean red wine which cost me only 3 euros.

The chicken is still cooking so we have to wait a bit.

My book is about five teenagers sent to Earth so they could send something from Earth to the outer space colony. Meanwhile the world (which has been ravaged by wars and disease) blames the teenagers on shit that they aren't guilty for - global warming, the pandemic, wars etc. just because they're from the outer space colony with all the rich and famous. So it's a book which deals the question: "Are children supposed to deal with their parents' mistakes?"

I didn't really compromise when the plot actually called for such tropes I guess.

Do you usually drink a bottle of wine to reward yourself for sitting through David Foster Wallace lol?

I print out the manuscript, put in a manuscript box, hold it 6 inches over the table and drop it. The thump is proof of an idea made tangible. Then I have a shot of expensive or rare bourbon.
