The last stretch

Boy are those last few percent of a project the toughest aren't they ? While the book is ready, only require to make one final check phase and prepare for publication afterwards, so the book is coming soon, I hope in June still. I used to think that correcting one's work over and over again was not only a time consuming task, but also bordering on perfectionism (something I know a little about). After all there's an adage saying that "art is never finished but only abandoned".

I certainly feel that way myself regarding Earth - Last Sanctuary but probably for a lot of things I did in my life, especially my artworks, which I always felt that I ended abandoning so I could move on to the next one. Looking back at the last few months, the amount of time and energy I have spent on the (supposedly) last 5% remaining and realizing they actually consumed a lot more of my time than I had expected. Be it the artwork that required quite a huge investment of time, and stress considering I had initially hired someone to do it but ended doing it myself.

Anyhow, there are still a few little things to do but I'm starting to see the end of the tunnel. Finally!
